My latest 'favourite' bread baking endeavour is Sourdough Focaccia... where have you been all my life?! I've always loved focaccia, but the single strain yeast used in most loaves is terrible for my digestion. No-one wants to end up with bloating or discomfort after eating a favourite food, so this may be the way you can enjoy baked goods. This recipe is not only delicious, but with it's ...

Fig Apricot Walnut Orange Gluten-free Sourdough Loaf
Recipe by Kristin Cosgrove I have never been a fan of fruit bread but this Fig Apricot Walnut Orange Gluten-free Sourdough Loaf has totally won me over. It is a far cry from commercial raisin toast or fruit buns. You will need to create a Gluten-free Starter Culture (which is easy enough to do) and I'd suggest taking a look at the video tutorial for the Gluten-free Sourdough Loaf before ...
Gluten-free Sourdough Loaf & Hamburger Buns
There is something really special about baking sourdough bread. Creating gentle, familiar kitchen rhythms can make time spent cooking for our family easier and even enjoyable. Sourdough baking has its own rhythm. If we practice, it doesn’t seem so much like a recipe but more like something we just do in and around family life. It does take time, but the rewards are worth it. Baking bread ...
Fudgy Sourdough Chocolate Brownies
These Fudgy Sourdough Chocolate Brownies are a very decadent way to use up discarded sourdough starter. They aren't an every day snack, more of a celebration treat. Seeing we are welcoming new members into the family, and with Father's Day coming up, I thought I'd better fast-track this simple recipe. I've been working on producing a brownie with a crusty top and a fudgy interior for ages. When ...
Spelt Sourdough Loaf
I've been asked to develop a 100% spelt loaf and here it is. If you are really wheat sensitive this is your best option in sourdough. When I started my sourdough journey I started with spelt right off the bat and really struggled to produce a good loaf, they were always super dense. Frustrated, I gave up and went back to a wheat based (basic) loaf to fine-tune my skills and really understand ...

Sourdough Flat Breads
This Sourdough Flat Breads recipe is the simplest way to use up your sourdough discard. My family just loves these and they do come in handy when I make soup and we fancy a slice of bread, but I'm without. Making these is a lot cheaper and quicker than running to the bakery for bread, that's for sure. If you've been following my Sourdough bread making tutorial, you'll have plenty of sourdough ...
Basic Sourdough Loaf (Baking Tutorial)
I've been making sourdough loaves on and off for a couple of years (more off than on in the last year or so sadly). But these last few weeks of being housebound (Covid-19) I've had a good solid run of bread baking and my 12 yr old has got really involved in the process too which is such a great skill for him to have I think. It's taken me a while to manage what I consider the 'perfect loaf' - ...
