Hey Reader,

Can you believe we’re already well into August? Summer is flying by! 😮☀️

I’ve always loved this time of year—the slower pace, the cooler mornings, and that back-to-school energy that still makes me want to start fresh on projects or dive into new recipe ideas. ✏️📚

And speaking of back-to-school… if you like making homemade snacks to send off with your kiddos (or just need something fun to stash in your own lunchbox), you’ll love the recipes I’m sharing today.

These 5 sourdough snacks are all made with discard and are picky-eater approved. 👍

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. 😊

P.S. If you’ve been loving my sourdough recipes, I’d be so grateful if you pinned a few to your recipe board on ​Pinterest​. It helps more people find them - and start their own sourdough adventures too! 💛

​Sourdough Granola Bars​

A chewy, grab-and-go snack that’s perfect for lunchboxes or busy mornings.

​Sourdough Cheez-Its​

A crunchy, cheesy snack that beats anything from a box.

​Morning Glory Sourdough Muffins​

Packed with fruit, veggies, and whole grains—these make a wholesome start to any school day.

​Sourdough Granola​

Sprinkle it over yogurt or pack it as a snack.

​Sourdough Banana Bread​

A classic, cozy treat that doubles as an easy breakfast or sweet snack.

To help you get the best results, here are some ingredients and tools I recommend:

  • ​Food Scale - Measuring by weight is the easiest way to get consistent results every time.
  • ​Aluminum Muffin Pan - Great for evenly baked muffins with golden brown tops.
  • ​Aluminum Loaf Pan - Bakes quick breads to perfection every time.
  • ​Paper Liners - Makes cleanup easier and gives a more bakery-style look.

Hey Reader, Nothing says lazy Sunday morning like a big stack of pancakes, topped with butter and dripping with maple syrup. 🥞🍁 I’ve always been a pancake (and waffle!) lover. When I was a kid, they were just about the only breakfast I’d eat—I wasn’t a fan of eggs back then. These days, I save them for slow weekend mornings, but they’re still one of my absolute favorites. Testing various sourdough...
