Three wheat

Break tall grass for seeds. Till dirt with a hoe, plant the seeds, keep water within four blocks, and harvest when the crop is tall and brown-gold. Three wheat cover one loaf. Villages already grow wheat next to the farms.

Wheat in a row

Open the Crafting Table. Drop three wheat across any of the three rows. One bread appears on the right; take it. The row needs three squares, so the inventory 2×2 cannot hold it.

Five hunger in one bite

Eat the loaf from the hotbar. One bread fills five hunger. A cake takes more wheat and sits as a block; a cookie uses cocoa. Bread stacks to sixty-four. Farmer villagers buy it.
