  • Cinnamon, Cranberry, Walnut and Candied Pecan Sourdough

    I decided to do a 17 hr fast since we ate out last night. It was worth it, but I had a very small sliver of this for my first food before everyone devoured it. It is SO yummy!! Gage… Continue reading

    Requested by my husband last night. 🤍 This one is a kids favorite too. This is what they all had for lunch today. I like it, but I prefer lots of olives and feta to the pepperoni, but I might… Continue reading

  • Charcoal Dusted Boulé

    Thought I would share another one of my Black Boulès.  I love using this as an aesthetic scoring method, but let me say this- While Activated Charcoal does have a lot of great benefits in consumption, it is also very… Continue reading

  • Protein PB Cookies

    These were so yummy! It’s a great way to use discard if you’re doing sourdough. If not, just omit it. They will still be good, just not as puffy! 🤍 Continue reading

  • Life is Gourd! 🤍

  • Pumpkin Sourdough

    I decided to try something new. I replaced the 700 grams of water with Pumpkin Puree. I added an additional 50 grams of sourdough starter as well. The dough feels different, but the stretch and folds were easy. I’ll report… Continue reading

  • Blue Cheese and Rosemary | Pepperoni and Mozzarella

    These came out fabulous! They’re just regular size boules but I cold baked them (no preheating the pan) in my bread oven at 450 for 35 minutes covered and 18 minutes uncovered. They came out so light and crispy! I… Continue reading

  • Sourdough Inclusion Favorite 💛
