The Sourdough Slice Serving sourdough recipes, stories, and inspiration every Saturday morning. 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...

Hey Reader, It’s been a busy summer over here! 🐓 I’ve been raising chickens for a few years now, and my outdoor run was definitely due for an upgrade. Thankfully, one of my super kind neighbors helped me reinforce it—so now my girls are much safer from hawks, foxes, and raccoons! 🦊🐔 Naturally, that inspired me to do the most logical thing… run out and bring home 8 baby chicks. 🐣😂 So now my flock is...

Hey Reader, Is your garden full of zucchini yet? 🥒 This summer has been a bit cool and rainy here in Massachusetts, so my garden is running a few weeks behind.

Every summer, I make sourdough discard zucchini...

I’ve got my...

A loaf of blueberry sourdough bread.

The Sourdough Slice Serving sourdough recipes, stories, and inspiration every Saturday morning. Hey Reader, Guess what? It’s officially blueberry season! 🫐 There’s nothing better than sweet, juicy blueberries freshly picked from a farm. I go blueberry picking every summer and I always end up bringing home more than I know what to do with. Part of last year's blueberry picking haul. After freezing half of what I pick, I usually make sourdough blueberry muffins. And let me tell you—the oat...

The Sourdough Slice Serving sourdough recipes, stories, and inspiration every Saturday morning. Hey Reader, A few weeks ago, on a whim, I signed up for a “Weeding for Wildlife” hike at a local state park.
