Most satisfying thing evaaah. And it’s so fun to play around with! So many flavor options. In spite of its prestige,…

Basque Cake-lets with Pumpkin Pastry Cream Filling

September 24, 2014 by Sophie Leave a Comment

This cake has such a huge place in my heart. I first learned about it and how to make it at the bakery I worked at a couple years ago, called the Sweet Life (no longer with us sadly). That was probably the best and most fun job I have ever had! It was my…

Nutella Crème Brûlée and Chocolate Dipped Raspberries for Two

February 10, 2013 by Sophie 10 Comments

First off: Nom. (Nutella…) Okay, so…Creme brulee is probably one of my favorite things to bake. It’s versatile (sooo many flavor options), fairly simple once you’ve done it a few times, and SO MUCH FUN to torch before serving.  It has become a bit of a tradition for me to make my boyfriend, Nevin, creme…

FLOUR + FLOWERS! 🤍 Chocolate orange rye sourdou FLOUR + FLOWERS! 🤍 Chocolate orange rye sourdough all painted up. 🌼🍫🍊 I used some fresh milled rye flour in this loaf, along with extra dark cocoa powder, fresh orange zest, honey and chocolate chunks. 🤤

I’m not the best at painting, but I’ve been wanting to try something like this since I saw @sleepingmakesmehungry beautiful floral loaves a while back, and @lovealldesignco more recently. 🎨🌸🤍

I used food dye gel mixed with a little water as the paint, scored with my @wiremonkeyshop Poco lame & baked in my @challengerbreadware pan as always. 🌾🍫🍞

I ❤️ blood orange season! 🍊 I wanted to sha I ❤️ blood orange season! 🍊 I wanted to share this small batch marmalade recipe I make each year. The perfect accompaniment to toast with salted butter. Toast is truly one of my favorite foods, and I love making jams & preserves to enjoy with fresh bread. 🍊🧈🍞 Also, this beautiful wood serving board is by my very talented brother @jeffremer! 🤍

Small Batch Blood Orange Marmalade: (Makes 1 pint)

300g blood oranges (2-3 oranges)
1/2 lemon
300g water
250g granulated sugar

Peel the oranges and 1/2 lemon, and slice the rind into thin strips and pieces. Remove the seeds from the fruit, slice into smaller chunks and set aside.

Combine the peels and water in a stainless steel pot over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pot. Simmer for 20-30 minutes until the peels are tender. You may need to add more water as necessary.

Add the sugar and the fruit to the pot and cook over high heat, stirring occasionally. Boil for 6-8 minutes until the syrup thickens. 

Transfer to a pint jar and allow to cool uncovered before covering and storing in the fridge.

Scored with my @wiremonkeyshop lame, baked in my @challengerbreadware pan, using the 5 minute score by @sourly. This is actually a loaf from last summer, but I never posted the full scoring video. Inspired by my wheat stalk tattoo 🤍🌾

Back with one of my go-to favorite sourdough desig Back with one of my go-to favorite sourdough designs. A quilty wheat stalk pattern for the #mywheatstalk challenge by @artbreadlove. 🌾🤍 I love this quilty pattern because it’s such a fun one to score, and even with little variations it always bakes up beautifully. 

Got to use my new @thebreadmat for this bake (these are truly awesome @rosehillsourdough 👍🏻). Scored as always with my @wiremonkeyshop Poco lame, and baked in my @challengerbreadware pan. Using the @sourly 5 minute score. 🤍🌾

Fresh start for the new year, felt only right to d Fresh start for the new year, felt only right to do a single slash loaf. I’m always tempted to score a more complex design, but I tend to keep it simple with slashing inclusion loaves. 🌾🍞

This was a delicious cranberry & roasted chestnut bread I made with some beautiful flours from @bartonspringsmill in atx. 🤍🌾 Used their purple straw wheat & rouge de Bordeaux. Slathered a slice in some softened butter with flaky sea salt for a go-to snack. Also had to flag the two quick 🐈🐈‍⬛ cameos!
