I baked these loaves to take to an Easter BBQ. I wanted something that was good on it’s own, or with some meat piled on top. The subtle honey aromas and added twist from the sunflower seeds and shaved almonds was perfect! As a bonus, one loaf got a rabbit stenciled on top. Schedule Using…

Blue Corn + Pepita Sourdough
I wanted to make a “New Mexico” sourdough but had recently made a loaf with green chile and another with red chile. What else is a typical New Mexican ingredient? Blue corn!

Pepitas + Sunflower seeds + Oats Hybrid
It’s not often I bake the same loaf of bread twice, but this is one that I find myself coming back to. The seeds give a little crunch while the oats provide a silkiness. This is a great all purpose bread that I use for toast, breakfast sandwiches, cheesy garlic bread or simply dipped into…
