Steps:
- GLAZE ONE: Mix egg and water ( or choose milk or cream) and mix together. Apply this ten minutes before baking time is finished.
- GLAZE TWO: Mix egg yolk and cream ( or choose milk or water) This glaze gives bread a rich brown look if applied either before baking or ten minutes before baking is done.
- GLAZE THREE: Beat egg white with the cold water - gives a shiny look. Apply five minutes before baking is finished.
- GLAZE FOUR - SWEET GLAZE: Combine the sifted icing sugar with milk, adding vanilla to taste. Drizzle over loaves after they have been baked - apply twice -- half as soon as taken from oven and then again when bread has cooled a bit.

HOLIDAY BUNS
This is one of those old family recipes a friend a wonderful baker of bread, buns and rolls shared with me good many years ago. Over the years it has been the one I make for holiday meals and special occasions ... not surprisingly they began to be called the 'Holiday Buns' My most requested recipe when family gathers. Shapes beautifully to make crusty buns, fluffy dinner rolls as well as lovely braided breads which I often sprinkle with sesame seeds. Recipe easily halved and very freezer friendly.

Steps:
- In bowl: dissolve sugar in lukewarm water, add yeast and let stand for 10 minutes.
- In Large Bowl: measure out 12 cups flour and set aside.
- In Large Bowl: add milk, melted margarine and sugar, mix to dissolve.
- Add beaten eggs,vinegar, salt, lukewarm water, the sour cream(optional) and stir in the yeast mixture.
- Add 6 cups of flour and mix smooth, then add flour 1 cup at a time, until no longer sticky.(flour is approximate, for most part I use 12 cups of flour - on occasion I need more or a touch less. Flour being variable it may take more than the 12 cups of flour - add enough to give you a nice smooth elastic dough).
- Knead on floured board until dough is smooth and elastic, place in well greased bowl turning to grease top.
- Cover and let rise until double in bulk (about 1 hour) then knead down grease top lightly with margarine and again rise until double in bulk.
- Knead down, let dough rest ten minutes and shape into buns (many old recipes suggest the size of a large egg).
- Place buns on a well greased large cookie sheet (I put 3 in a row and not touching) lightly grease tops with margarine, cover.
- After rising 15 minutes press down lightly on top of each bun with the palm of the hand.( if wishing to make dinner roll shaped buns skip this step) Rise until double. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 - 25 minutes until lightly browned -- brush with melted butter and bake a couple minutes more until nicely browned. Brush with melted butter when baked and cool on rack. The extra brushing with butter makes for a very nice top. Baking time depends on the oven and yield on the size of the buns.

HOLIDAY PUMPKIN BREAD WITH ORANGE GLAZE
My grandmother and I always make tons of these at Christmas time to give as gifts. It isn't the holidays without this dessert. Not only are they delicious, they're freezer-friendly! I would classify these in the same family as banana bread (sweet loaf) rather than 'bread.'

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray two 9x5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
- Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Mix sugar, pumpkin, oil, and eggs together using an electric mixer in a large bowl until well blended. Mix in flour mixture until well combined. Stir in walnuts and raisins by hand. Divide batter between the prepared pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaves comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove loaves from the pans and let cool completely, about 15 minutes more.
- Combine confectioners' sugar, orange juice, and orange zest in a small bowl. Stir using a spoon to blend well. Spoon glaze over the top of cooled loaves, letting excess run down the sides. Sprinkle with additional 1 tablespoon walnuts before glaze hardens.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the flavor and texture of your glaze. Use real butter, fresh milk, and pure vanilla extract.
- Pay attention to the consistency of your glaze: The consistency of your glaze should be thick enough to coat the bread without being too runny or too thick. If your glaze is too thin, it will not stick to the bread. If your glaze is too thick, it will be difficult to spread.
- Apply the glaze at the right time: The best time to apply the glaze is when the bread is still warm from the oven. This will allow the glaze to soak into the bread and create a beautiful sheen.
- Be creative with your glazes: There are endless possibilities when it comes to creating glazes for bread. Try experimenting with different flavors, such as maple, honey, or citrus. You can also add spices, such as cinnamon or nutmeg, to your glaze.
Conclusion:
Glazes are a delicious and easy way to add flavor and visual appeal to your holiday breads and buns. By following these tips, you can create glazes that will make your baked goods irresistible.
