Hey Reader,

Happy November! πŸ¦ƒ Are you feeling ready for Thanksgiving and the rest of the holiday season? I sure am!

I've been in holiday baking mode for a while now, but this week I officially started getting into some of the more festive recipes. I made a turkey-shaped sourdough bread (which was so fun!) and started working on some new Christmas dessert recipes. Stay tuned for those!

Outside of the kitchen, my friends and I managed to finish building my new chicken run this week, and I also squeezed in a few hours to prep my garden bed and plant 72 cloves of garlic. They'll be ready to harvest next July! Garlic is one of my favorite crops to grow because it's so easy, and I'm already looking forward to having a fresh supply next summer.

Now that November is here, it's time to start thinking about Thanksgiving baking! Every year, I like to share a variety of recipes that make it easy to bring sourdough to the table and share something delicious with family and friends.

So this week, I'm kicking things off with a mix of savory and sweet sourdough bread recipes that would be perfect for your Thanksgiving table.

I hope you find one you love and enjoy! ☺️

​Herb Stuffing Sourdough Bread​

With dried cranberries, pecans, and chunks of cooked stuffing throughout.

​Cranberry Walnut Sourdough​

Toasted walnuts and fresh or dried cranberries make a hearty and festive loaf.

​Cranberry Orange Sourdough​

Tangy, zesty, and sweet, this loaf makes fantastic turkey sandwiches.

​Apple Cinnamon Sourdough Bread​

SautΓ©ed cinnamon apples swirled throughout - great for breakfast!

​Pumpkin-Shaped Sourdough​

Pumpkin flavored or not, a pumpkin-shaped loaf will be the star of the table.

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.
  • ​Dutch Oven - Creates steam while baking so you get a beautiful rise and crust.
  • ​Aluminum Loaf Pan - Promotes even baking for soft, golden sandwich loaves.
  • ​Straight-Sided Containers - Easier to track bulk fermentation.
  • ​Bread Sling - Helps you safely transfer dough into a hot Dutch oven.
  • ​Lame - Gives you control and confidence when scoring your dough for an even rise.
  • ​Proofer - Allows you to control the proofing temperature to better predict bulk fermentation timing.

Hey Reader, Happy Halloween! πŸŽƒ Do you get trick-or-treaters, or are you taking your kids or grandkids trick-or-treating today? I'm spending the morning working a shift at my per diem job at the local hospital.

Last week, I still needed my air conditioner, and now I'm fighting with myself not to turn on my furnace as my house hits 57℉. With oil prices over $6 a gallon, I have a feeling I'll be using my fireplace a lot this winter. Speaking of my brand-new furnace, I had to have it looked at this week because it wouldn't turn on (luckily, it was an...

My sister asked me to help make flower arrangements for my niece's baptism this past weekend, so I got to put them to good...
