How to Make Bread in Palworld (Recipe, Stats & Stations)

Bread is a straightforward kitchen recipe in Palworld: one ingredient, one short cook, and a payoff of Nutrition and Sanity. It needs exactly one Flour and nothing else, and a plain Campfire is one of its five valid crafting stations — so no upgraded kitchen is required to make it. According to paldb.cc, the recipe takes 20 seconds to cook and restores 27 Nutrition and 4 SAN (Sanity) per loaf. The in-game item description keeps it simple: "Bread made from baked Flour. A tasty staple food."
The Recipe: One Flour, Five Cooking Stations
The full recipe, per paldb.cc, is just Flour x1 — no water, no salt, no second ingredient documented. One Flour is all a Campfire, a Cooking Pot, an Electric Kitchen, a Large-Scale Stone Oven, or an Ancient Kitchen needs to turn into a finished loaf.
Not every source agrees on the full station list, though. palworld.wiki.gg confirms only three stations — Campfire, Cooking Pot, and Electric Kitchen — while paldb.cc lists those same three plus two more, Large-Scale Stone Oven and Ancient Kitchen. The recipe itself (Flour x1, 20 seconds, 27 Nutrition, Common rarity) matches between the two sites, so treat the first three stations as confirmed twice over and the last two as paldb.cc-only until a second source backs them.
One more gap worth naming plainly: no unlock condition is documented for Bread. No player level, no Technology Point cost, no tech-tree tier appears anywhere in this research. Given the recipe needs nothing more advanced than a Campfire, it's reasonable to guess it's available early — but that's an inference, not a confirmed fact, so this article isn't going to put a number on it.
What a Loaf Actually Restores

Per paldb.cc, one Bread restores 27 Nutrition (the game's satiety/hunger stat) and 4 SAN, its shorthand for Sanity. Both numbers come from the same listing as the recipe, so they carry the same sourcing.
No special buff beyond those two numbers is documented for Bread. Some Palworld foods carry a secondary effect — a stamina boost, a temporary stat buff, a status cure — and Bread's paldb.cc entry lists none. Until a source documents one, treat Bread as a straight Nutrition-and-Sanity food, not a buff food.
The item itself is light and stacks deep: 0.3 weight, Common rarity, and a 9,999 max stack. At 0.3 per loaf, a full stack of 9,999 would weigh 2,999.7 (9,999 × 0.3) — nobody carries a full stack, but it shows how far the ceiling sits above anything you'd actually hold.
Five Stations, Ranked by How Many Sources Confirm Them

Lay the station list out by confirmation level and the pattern from the recipe section gets clearer:
- Confirmed by both paldb.cc and palworld.wiki.gg: Campfire, Cooking Pot, Electric Kitchen.
- Listed by paldb.cc only, in this research pass: Large-Scale Stone Oven, Ancient Kitchen.
Practically, that means any base with a Campfire can already produce Bread — you don't need to build up to a Cooking Pot or an Electric Kitchen first to get a loaf out of your Flour. Any differences between the five stations in cook speed or batch size aren't documented in this research, so this article isn't going to claim one station cooks Bread faster than another. The two paldb.cc-only stations are both advanced kitchens you'd typically build for other recipes anyway, so cooking Bread there is a byproduct of having them, not a reason to build them.
Sell Value and Spoil Time: The Two Numbers That Don't Agree

This is the one place the two sources genuinely conflict instead of one simply listing more than the other. paldb.cc records a sell value of 300 Gold and a corruption (spoilage) time of 1,200 seconds — that's 1,200 ÷ 60 = 20 minutes. palworld.wiki.gg records 20 Gold and a spoil time of 300 seconds, or 300 ÷ 60 = 5 minutes.
Both numbers move in the same direction — paldb.cc's figures are the larger ones on both counts — but a 15x gap on sell price and a 4x gap on spoil time is too wide to average or guess between. This article isn't going to assert a single sell value or spoil time for Bread. If either number matters for your run — bulk-selling loaves, or planning how long a batch keeps before a raid — check in-game rather than trusting either site blind.
Practical tips
- Bread costs one Flour and nothing else, per paldb.cc's recipe listing.
- A Campfire is enough to make it — no upgraded kitchen is required, though four other stations also work.
- 20 seconds per loaf, 27 Nutrition, 4 SAN — all from the same paldb.cc listing.
- No unlock tier and no secondary buff are documented — don't assume either without checking in-game.
- Sell value and spoil time are unresolved between sources (300 Gold/20 min vs. 20 Gold/5 min) — verify in-game before relying on either.
Running your own Palworld 1.0 server
A recipe this small still depends on the base around it staying up. Whatever turns the Flour going into your kitchen — this research doesn't document that production chain, so this article isn't naming one — that supply and the Campfire or kitchen cooking it only keep producing loaves if the base itself keeps running. On a dedicated Palworld server, your base and its stations keep going whether or not you're the one logged in, so a food stockpile doesn't reset every time the host closes the game. Full crossplay lets the whole group pull from the same kitchen, and one-click backups mean a base built around steady food production doesn't disappear to a bad update or a crash.
Conclusion
Bread's core facts are settled: one Flour, 20 seconds, and a Campfire is all it takes — no upgraded kitchen required, even though paldb.cc lists four more stations (Cooking Pot, Electric Kitchen, Large-Scale Stone Oven, Ancient Kitchen) that also work. One loaf restores 27 Nutrition and 4 SAN, weighs 0.3, and stacks to 9,999. What isn't settled: no unlock tier, no secondary buff, no per-station cook-speed difference, and no single sell value or spoil time are documented — paldb.cc and palworld.wiki.gg disagree by 15x on Gold value (300 vs. 20) and 4x on spoilage (20 minutes vs. 5), so check those two numbers in-game rather than trusting either source alone.
