Maple-Glazed Harvest Bread Recipe: A Cozy Fall Bake for Slow Mornings

There’s something sacred about the way bread rises when we stop rushing. Maybe that’s why fall feels like an exhale — it reminds us that the best things take time. While the kitchen fills with maple and spice, the quiet has a way of settling in too.

Here is a maple-glazed harvest bread recipe.

Porch Light Note:

Bread takes its time — and so should you. Slow down. Let your heart rise gently with the rhythm of the oven.
