Sourdough pumpkin loaf
Very pleased with the end result 🧡

Based on our own WKB sourdough loaf (see: www.weekendbakery.com/posts/our-we...). Replaced 2/3 of the water in end dough with pumpkin puree and added about 20 g of extra water and 10 g of honey.

Preparing a pumpkin sourdough loaf - Dough made with 2/3 of the water replaced by pumpkin puree. This was a first for us - big fun. Used our WKB no knead sourdough recipe as a base:

Let the Autumn / Fall baking begin: Sourdough with apple cinnamon raisin filling. Baked the apples in macadamia oil before use. The bread turned out so fragrant and tasty. With 20% whole rye flour and organic Manitoba bread flour.

Sourdough with 20% organic whole rye. Gave it another hour at warm room temp after shaping, then overnight in the fridge. Finding out how far I can take it. The crumb turned out extra light and pleasant to eat. Love this bread.😀
It's a variation on this recipe:

Sourdough with rye preferment and 25% whole wheat in final dough. Bulk ferment in fridge - continued the following morning with some S&F, shaping and final proof at room temp. Just another test to see how the dough behaves. Like the result. Bread tastes great.

A few more pics of the jalapeño & cheddar sourdough baked this weekend. Love the result.

Just out of the oven: Sourdough jalapeño and cheddar loaf. The cheddar is also organic, that is why the cheese is very pale yellow.

Glad I saw a few more butterflies in the garden today. Such a big difference with previous years where we could take a 'butterfly bath' between the butterfly bushes (Vlinderstruiken / Buddleja). 🧡🦋

'Vloerkadetten' - soft white buns, light as a feather - made with pizza flour and a tigernut milk tangzhong / water roux.

It is sort of the opposite of sourdough, but they sure have a place in my baking heart ❤️

Baked in Dutch oven early this morning after overnight final proofing in the fridge. No knead sourdough with whole rye and whole wheat. It's lovely light and crusty.

This picture was taken a few years ago, but I still cannot believe this swallowtail visited our garden and I managed to digitally capture it ❤️
Hope we will see it again. It feels like a gift when this happens.

We are preparing for a heat wave, unknown for this time of year in Holland - Topping up the bird baths, watering plants that really need it, providing shade...
On the plus side we see grapes growing, spotted a young thrush, aurelia butterfly and a rather big frog - all part of our small ecosystem. ❤️
