Used our 'easier' baguette recipe for this.

Babka bit too big for the baking tin - but so delicious π§‘

Raisin bread made with raisins, cranberries, oil, honey and speculaas spices
Made with great ingredients like organic cranberries and raisins, date syrup, vegetable oil and seasonal (speculaas) spices βOur old friends raisin bread - The sourdough version.
50/50 organic Whole wheat / bread flour no knead sourdough. It is a bit 'heavier' yet light to eat. Complex taste and so very far away from the awful generic store bought whole wheat loaves..
Dutch rondo pastry filled with creme pat and almond paste and topped with fresh cranberries. Weekend Bakery logo in powdered sugar
Cranberry Rondo's
The combination of almond paste and creme pat for the filling is divine!
Let the December baking begin π€©

Sourdough pumpkin loaf
Very pleased with the end result π§‘
Based on our own WKB sourdough loaf (see: www.weekendbakery.com/posts/our-we...). Replaced 2/3 of the water in end dough with pumpkin puree and added about 20 g of extra water and 10 g of honey.

Showing crumb of sourdough loaf made with 20% whole rye
Sourdough with 20% organic whole rye. Gave it another hour at warm room temp after shaping, then overnight in the fridge. Finding out how far I can take it. The crumb turned out extra light and pleasant to eat. Love this bread.π
It's a variation on this recipe:

A pumpkin style vase filled with orange dahlia's and small sunflowers
The garden keeps on giving π§‘ - Making sure to leave more than enough for the birds & bees
Sourdough with rye preferment and 25% whole wheat in final dough. Bulk ferment in fridge - continued the following morning with some S&F, shaping and final proof at room temp. Just another test to see how the dough behaves. Like the result. Bread tastes great.
A few more pics of the jalapeΓ±o & cheddar sourdough baked this weekend. Love the result.
#weekendbakery #jalapenoandcheddarsourdough
Just out of the oven: Sourdough jalapeΓ±o and cheddar loaf. The cheddar is also organic, that is why the cheese is very pale yellow.
Butterflies on butterfly bush and vervain. And two pictures of dahlia's and one of a yellow small sunflower
Glad I saw a few more butterflies in the garden today. Such a big difference with previous years where we could take a 'butterfly bath' between the butterfly bushes (Vlinderstruiken / Buddleja). π§‘π¦
Variation with different flour on our WKB sourdough. This one a combination of Manitoba and organic German type wheat flour combined with whole wheat and whole rye flour. Baked on Sunday morning after final proof 20 hours in the fridge.
