How to Make Bread in Minecraft

Bread is a basic recipe that will satiate your hunger and keep that meter full. All you need to craft bread is two things. A crafting table to actually make the bread and three stalks of wheat. You can find wheat in open fields by chopping down stalks you find in the plains biome.

Put the wheat in a horizontal line going across the middle row, and you’ll make bread. You do not need an oven or anything fancy to make it, just a crafting table.

You can also find wheat from chests in dungeons, mineshafts, strongholds, and villages.

Eating bread will restore five icons on your meter, so it’s incredibly handy to have on you at all times. If you want your health to recover, you’ll need to make sure your hunger meter is full; otherwise, your health regeneration will be slower and even eventually stop all together.

The best way to ensure you have enough wheat is to plant a bunch of wheat crops near your house. You can then harvest the wheat, replant the seeds, and continue to have all of the wheat you’ll ever need to make bread.

Well, that’s everything you need to know about how to make bread in Minecraft. For more tips, tricks, and guides, be sure to check out Prima Games.
