How to craft Bread
How do you make Bread in Minecraft?
To craft Bread, place the ingredients in a crafting grid following the recipe pattern shown above. The crafting grid can be a player's 2×2 inventory crafting slots (for 2×2 recipes) or a 3×3 Crafting Table. If cheats are enabled, you can also spawn Bread directly with: /give @p minecraft:bread.
What is the Minecraft ID for Bread?
The namespaced ID is minecraft:bread, used in the /give command: /give @p minecraft:bread 1. In legacy versions before 1.13, Bread used the numeric ID 297. Numeric item IDs were removed in the 1.13 "Flattening" and no longer work in modern commands.
How much hunger does Bread restore?
Bread restores 5 hunger points (2.5 drumsticks on the hunger bar) and provides 6 saturation. Saturation is the hidden buffer Minecraft drains before your visible hunger bar starts going down.
