    Really fun and educational couple of hours. Taylor was super approachable and knowledgeable, sharing her love for all things food! The only tears I shed are for the hour long commute from my place in Washington Heights to the kitchen in Williamsburg. But I loved the surprise “dinner party” at the end.

In-Person Bread Making Classes & Schools in NYC

When you take an in-person class to learn bread making, you get hands-on instruction from experts who can help you learn the skills to excel quickly. CourseHorse has tons of NYC bread making classes listed on the site to help you get connected with the best schools and bread making instructions in NYC. 

A great class from The Brooklyn Kitchen is the Intro to Sourdough class. It has an average class size of 20 people, which gives you lots of room to make friends, meet new people, and network with other people who love bread making. Your teacher will walk you through the stages of making sourdough bread at home and give you an overview of the steps that contribute to a perfect loaf. 

It is the perfect class to take if you want to learn the basics of sourdough in a stress-free environment with others who are learning from scratch. In addition, the course offers substitutions for those who have dairy and wheat allergies since some recipes may contain these allergies. 

Another great course from The Brooklyn Kitchen is the Doughs course. In this class, you’ll learn how to make dinner rolls, cream scones, and gougeres, though the exact menu may depend on seasonality, ingredient availability, and the chef’s preference. The average class size is 20 people, which gives plenty of opportunities for making friends and meeting new people. 

This class is a great general bread making class if you’re interested in learning how to make several types of dough. The course lasts for two hours and you’ll make the dough, cook, and eat your creations. You’ll also have enough to take several breads home with you. 

Atelier Sucré offers a New York Bagels class for students who want to learn how to make the famous New York bagel. During the two and a half hour course, you’ll learn how to make bagel dough and how to bake authentic New York bagels. In addition, students will prepare their own bagel toppings and sandwich fillings. It’s perfect for anyone who’s wanted to know how New York bagels got their acknowledgement. 

In this class, students will work in groups of four people to create bagels. When the class is over, everyone will have enough completed bagels to take a dozen home with you to share with your friends and family. You’ll also learn the best way to apply toppings to bagels. 

Another great class you should consider taking is the four-part Baking Boot Camp from Home Cooking New York.

Here’s what you’ll cover over the four classes: 

  • Week One: You’ll learn how to make cakes, including building a batter and making buttercream. Specifically, you’ll learn to make yellow butter cake with Swiss meringue buttercream and caramelized fruit upside down cake.

  • Week Three: You will focus on baking pies and tarts. The three recipes included in week three include seasonal fruit galettes, lemon curd tart, and apple tarte tatin. 
  • Week Four: Finally, you’ll cover breads and make focaccia, whole wheat pita bread, Make-Your-Own pizza, and chopped salad. 

At the end of each of the four classes, you’ll sit down and enjoy a full meal with your classmates. This is the perfect course to introduce you to baking since it covers a wide variety of subjects and recipes.

Virtual Bread Making Classes & Schools

If you live in New York but don’t feel like commuting to an in-person class, consider taking an online bread making class. Online classes provide many of the benefits of an in-person class but you can take the entire course from the comfort of your home. It’s a great option for those with busy schools or if you live too far away from the in-person class’s location. 

One of the best online bread making classes is the virtual Bagel Workshop from Home Cooking New York. While you’re taking the class, you’ll learn to knead, roll, boil, and bake authentic NYC style bagels. You’ll be taught by chef-instructor Erica Wides. By the end of the class, you’ll make a dozen hand-rolled bagels or assorted flavors. 

You’ll need to have all of the materials and flavors ready before the start of the class so you can fully take part in the virtual classroom. If you have any questions about what you need, feel free to reach out. The class focuses on teaching bagel-making skills so you can recreate New York bagels.

Another class option is the Virtual Bread Baking 101 class from Eve Bergazyn. During the class, you’ll learn how to combine salt, water, yeast, and flour into warm, crusty, and chewy breads. You’ll be guided by your live instructor on how to create several classic breads. To fully participate, you’ll need to bring your own ingredients, including active dry yeast, flour, olive oil, honey, salt, sugar, and more. 

You will also need to have several tools ready in the kitchen, including a small whisk, measuring cups, bowls, sheet pans, wire racks, and more. The teacher specifically recommends having a KitchenAid with a hook or hands mixer, but it’s not required. You’ll be able to interact with the teacher, ask questions, and get feedback on your technique. 

The Chopping Block on Lincoln Square offers a Virtual Cook Along: Phyllo Workshop. Phyllo dough is a light and flakey dough that you can use to make pastries and desserts. The chef will teach you the nuances for successfully working with this light and flaky pastry to prepare three delicious recipes.

Specifically, you’ll make spanakopita (spinach and feta phyllo triangles), Baklava (layered spiced walnuts and phyllo with honey syrup), and orange and clove-scented phyllo cake. In the class, you’ll leave six specific skills, including:

  • Working with phyllo dough
  • Making spinach and nut fillings
  • Preparing honey syrup
  • Working with spices
  • Whipping eggs

 

By the end of the class, you’ll be an expert in using and making phyllo dough and you’ll be prepared to make these dishes on your own from the comfort of your home. 

Private Group Bread Making Classes in NYC

Businesses and companies can book private group bread making classes in NYC for their employees to learn new skills, relax, and get to know each other in a non-stressful environment. It’s the perfect reward for employees after a long work quarter. CourseHorse has several great group classes that are perfect for business groups. 

A great virtual class for groups is the Virtual Grow Your Own Home Garden (Materials Included) course. It’s a private, interactive workshop led by a professional instructor. Your entire group will get an herbal kit before the start of class. The kit includes the following: 

  • Seeds: parsley, cilantro, tarragon, chives, and thyme
  • Starter pots
  • Planting Markers
  • Peat discs

Your group will learn how to build their own small gardens in their home and cultivate herbs. It’s a relaxing class that’s perfect for helping employees and group members relax while learning great new skills. 

CourseHorse also has in-person classes for groups in New York. For example, you can book the NYC In-Person: Japanese Vegan Cooking class for up to 25 people. Because you can only have 25 people, this may not be best for large groups, but it’s perfect for smaller companies.

In this class, your group will learn to cook wholesome and filling Japanese foods that promote wellness and health. During the two-hour class, the instructor will teach the group how to use ancient superfoods like miso and tofu as you make an appetizer, entree, and dessert. You’ll learn to make: 

  • Appetizer: Organic trumpet mushroom carpaccio with yuzu, truffle oil, shiso basil, sea salt, and crusted almonds
  • Entrée: Herbed creamy tofu ricotta lasagna with brown rice pasta
  • Dessert: Organic apple rose tart with almond cream, banana, cinnamon, and brown sugar

If you can’t find the class you’re looking for, feel free to reach out to CourseHorse. CourseHorse can walk you through your options and help you to find the best class option for group classes.
