Making cozy.
I made this Sourdough Enriched Chocolate Cake for my dad’s birthday and it sliced so beautifully that jaws dropped. But I’ll be completely honest, I stole the little magnolias on top from my neighbor’s yard. Or rather, my mom did. While I kept watch with my dog from the street…and then we ate petals all the way home.
These Easy Sourdough Discard Crackers are the best! They’re so simple and super adaptable, as well as flaky and crisp. I like to make them with different flours and seasonings each time. They’re a quick way to be creative AND use up a lot of leftover sourdough starter!
Peanut Butter Banana Dog Treats. Two of my dog’s favorite foods are peanut butter and bananas. Sookie’s other favorites include salmon, sweet potato, and butter (which I do not feed her purposely), in case you were wondering. But anyways, peanut butter and banana are the perfect treat ingredients, hence these Peanut Butter Banana Dog Treats!
There’s nothing more exciting than a crispy-edged Sourdough Lemon Bundt Cake. Crispy crust, soft interior. AND topped with a tangy lemon glaze? Delicious. I love lemons. They make everything bright and scrumptious. Especially cakes.
This Semi-Rye Sandwich Sourdough is squishy. I don’t know if that’s the perfect word for it. But when you press on the loaf, it squishes down and puffs back up. The crumb is like a soft, tender sponge. But it’s not dry like a sponge at all. It’s actually very hydrated. It’s such a good texture – I highly, highly recommend tasting it yourself. Because clearly, I’m describing it very awkwardly.
Okay, so…most of these Valentine’s Day self-gifts are food related. Like, 3 out of 4. I have no regrets. I’ll also be making my Vegan Sourdough Squash Cinnamon Buns that day. What are holidays for if not food?!
