EASTER BREAD DOLLS (PUPI OR TITOLA)
Growing up in the Italian region of Istria (now a part of Croatia), Bastianich remembers making these dolls every Easter. "The pinza bread would be made for the adults, but for the children, the loaves would be formed into the pupi dolls," she recalls. Now living in New York City, she continues the tradition with her grandchildren.

Steps:
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Butter paper.
- For 1 doll, use 1 ball of dough:
- Cut off 1/3 of ball. From smaller piece, pinch off golf-ball-sized piece. On lightly floured surface, roll largest piece of dough into 20-inch-long rope. Roll medium-sized piece into 10-inch-long rope. Divide smallest piece into 2 pieces and roll each into thin 5-inch-long rope.
- On floured surface, form longest rope into inverted "U" shape. Arrange medium-sized rope with 1 end intersecting top center of "U," to form 3 strands of equal length. Gently press where ropes intersect to adhere.
- Gently braid strands, tucking last inch under to form round bottom. Gently press 1 dyed egg into braid about 1 inch from top. Using remaining 2 thin ropes, form cross over egg, pressing ends to adhere to body of doll. Using tines of fork, make 4 crimps on bottom of doll to form "feet." Using spatula or bench scraper, carefully transfer doll to baking sheet, leaving room for second doll alongside.
- Repeat entire process with remaining 2 balls of dough to make 2 more dolls, arranging third doll by itself on 2nd baking sheet. Loosely cover dolls with buttered plastic wrap. Let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Bake dolls 35 minutes. In small bowl, whisk together egg, sugar, and 2 tablespoons water until sugar is dissolved. Brush dolls with egg mixture and bake until very deep golden brown and knife inserted into center comes out clean, about 10 minutes more. Transfer to wire rack and cool completely. (Dolls will keep, wrapped well in plastic wrap, 1 week at room temperature or 6 to 8 weeks frozen.)

- Easter Egg Cake with Strawberry Frosting. This Easter cake tastes like a strawberry malted milkshake. The white chocolate nest? That just makes it irresistible.
- Easter Bread. Use up those dyed eggs with this pretty braided bread, traditionally served at Italian and Greek Easter celebrations. Get This Recipe.
- Lemon and Lime Battenberg. This is a unique and slightly peculiar British cake; you'd be hard pressed to find another baked good with the same psychedelic squares and level of geometric satisfaction.
- Lemon Blossom Cupcakes. Lemon cupcakes combined with lemon–cream cheese frosting make for a dozen desserts, each with a full blast of citrus flavor. Get This Recipe.
- Orange Sweet Rolls. These thinly rolled pastries are a burst of sunshine, made with both orange zest and juice for full, sweet citrus flavor. Get This Recipe.
- Buttery Pull-Apart Dinner Rolls. Garlic–brown butter makes these exceptional rolls fragrant and delicious, and a portion of cooked dough mixed into the batter keeps them supple.
- Lemon Cake with Fruit. Whatever fruit you have on hand—pears, berries, figs, grapefruit—will fare beautifully in this sheet cake, which is as good for Easter breakfast as it is dessert.
- Classic Carrot-Coconut Cake. Two great Easter cakes—coconut cake and carrot cake—are even better when combined into one two-layer stunner. Get This Recipe.
- Italian Easter Bread. This Italian sweet yeast bread must be prepped in stages, so you'll want to start it the day before Easter Sunday. If you can't find the traditional dove-shaped paper mold, you can bake it in a springform pan.
- Vanilla-Buttermilk Sheet Cake with Raspberries and Orange Cream-Cheese Frosting. A little orange juice (and zest) wakes up the icing of this crowd-pleasing cake with sweet citrus flavor.
