I am really enjoying baking with spelt flour. I was playing with the rye and oats added to this. The chocolate it called for was for color while baking it permeated the whole house and made me crave for chocolate and smelled heavenly. I added double the chocolate it called for more flavor and color. I also doubled the seeds and added pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, black and golden sesame seeds and caraway seeds. I love nuts and added that on top of it. 🌻 🎃 This was the first time I used my Cambro and it was fun monitoring how the bulk fermentation was going. Watch the dough and not the clock. I could see all the lovely bubbles from the LM sourdough fermenting. 😍🤎💖 I roasted my seeds in a frying pan and thank-you, Daddio @Henry Hunter for teaching me to do this in a small frying pan. I actually did it right this time round as I actually saw the oil in the pan. Doing this to the nuts enhanced the flavors and it was very delicious. The rye bread is very heavy and very filling and I really enjoyed it a lot. I loved the sourness that it produced. I would definitely bake this in the future again. 🍞 🍫❤️ The LM was a challenge as I had to add a tablespoon of water to the eye ball the correct consistency. I am so in love with this delicious and wonderful healthy rye bread. 💞💖🤎 @Dave Green My rye bread and I was being creative as the recipe did not call for caraway seeds. I added some in the inclusions. 🍞 🍫🌻

One word……⤵️ DELICIOUS!

You know what drives me crazy about most recipe websites? You spend more time closing pop-ups and scrolling past advertisements than you do actually reading the recipe. And when you finally get to the instructions, you have to scroll back up to remember how much water you needed. I figured there had to be a better way. So, I built one. Welcome to Recipe Pantry! https://recipepantry.app It's a free, ad-free collection of more than 230 bread recipes, but it's also something more. It's a teaching tool built around how we actually bake. Here's what you'll find: 🍞 Recipes that make sense. Ingredient amounts appear right inside each step. No more jumping back and forth with flour on your hands. ⚖️ Bake your way. Metric and volume measurements, adjustable batch sizes, and sourdough or commercial yeast options on selected recipes. 🌾 Ancient grains and fresh-milled flour. Einkorn, emmer, spelt, khorasan, and more, with recipes designed to help you understand how these grains behave. 🎄 Holiday Baking Collection. Traditional breads, family favorites, and recipes worth sharing with the people you love. 📖 Real baking education. Our Bread Authority and glossary help explain the techniques and science behind your recipes. 👨‍🍳 Recipe Pantry Pro. Additional tools for bakers who need production scaling, costing, scheduling, and labeling. And we're not finished. New recipes and features are being added regularly. Here's the part that matters most to me. I've spent years teaching people that good bread isn't reserved for professionals. You don't need a fancy kitchen, expensive equipment, or permission from somebody who thinks there's only one right way to bake. You just need good information, a little patience, and the confidence to try. That's what Recipe Pantry is about. And for those of you in Crust & Crumb Academy, this is another tool in your baking education. The Pantry gives you the recipes. The Academy gives you the instruction, live bake-alongs, and a community where we learn from each other.
