Hey Reader,

Are you gardening at all this year?

I spent Tuesday getting my garden beds planted for the season, and I’m so excited to see how everything does this year. Along with the garlic, shallots, and herbs I already have growing, I added tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, zucchini, and a mix of flower seeds. Now comes the fun part… waiting for everything to grow. β˜€οΈπŸŒ±

Last weekend was a little less fun. My cousin helped me take down a pretty large maple tree in my backyard. It was causing water issues in my basement, so it had to go. But it’s always a little sad to say goodbye to a tree.

With the garden planted and summer getting closer, I’ve officially shifted into bright, fresh flavor mode over here. Which means lots of lemon and berries. πŸ‹πŸ“

So this week, I’m sharing a few of my favorite sourdough lemon and strawberry recipes with you!

I hope you give one (or all) of them a try and enjoy! ☺️

P.S. Check out my Recipe eBooks + Resources page for printable sourdough recipes and guides! πŸ“šπŸ“πŸž

​Strawberry Sourdough Blondies​

Made with sourdough discard, brown butter, and freeze-dried strawberries.

​Strawberry Sourdough Muffins​

Soft and buttery with bits of fresh strawberry in every bite.

​Strawberry Swirl Sourdough Bread​

Packed with strawberry flavor, this beautiful loaf is perfect for breakfast.

​Sourdough Lemon Cookies​

Soft and chewy with a sweet lemon glaze finish.

​Lemon Blueberry Sourdough Bread​

Made with fresh or frozen blueberries and lemon zest.

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.
  • ​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.

We were right up front and had so much fun singing and dancing along. But now that I'm 37, my feet were definitely aching by the end of the night, and getting home at 1 AM was rough. πŸ˜† The rest of my week...

Hey Reader, Do you ever go fruit picking? 🫐 One of my favorite fall traditions is apple picking, but this week I switched things up and went blueberry picking with my sister's family instead. It was so much fun (and delicious)! I ended up bringing home four pounds of blueberries, which are now tucked away in my freezer for future recipes. Besides filling my freezer with blueberries, I also went to...
