Really enjoying making double batches of my sourdough each week and freezing one loaf. It's going to be nice to have fresh baked bread while hosting Christmas guests without all the work. #breadsky #sourdoughsky
So far we have rye, plain and chestnut. Next week, another Guinness loaf.

Yesterday we made some apple hand pies (note my one McDonalds tribute) and used the leftover pie filling for our pancakes this morning. #bakingsky

Frozen right after shaping. Put in the fridge overnight and then right into the oven. I think it would have benefitted from an hour or two on the counter to finish thawing/fermenting but we'll see when I cut it open. It's a Guinness Sourdough Loaf.

Tried FOUR times to make us protein chocolate mug cakes last night. Supposed to be a quick fun treat got super frustrating so if anyone's figured those out I'd love some tips.
Redeeming myself today with some chocolate protein donuts instead. #momsky #bakingsky

Guinness Sourdough 😍 🥰 #breadsky #bakingsky #sourdoughsky
Someone suggested I add chocolate to this recipe because chocolate and stout go together well. Love that idea next.

I'll keep working on my baguette shaping skills but if you ever have flatter than anticipated baguettes I highly recommend using them as buns. #breadsky #bakingsky #cookingsky

Making my favorite cozy lentil sausage kale soup tonight and thought these Ale Rolls would go perfectly.
A little behind on my weekly Paul Hollywood cookbook bakes but glad I saved these for colder weather.
Used Brooklyn Brewery's NA special effects hoppy amber ale. #breadsky #bakingsky

Does anyone else feel like these covers just don't match the vibe I get from Isaac??? Or Lena really? Possibly just my interpretation. But really interested in some of the themes this last one is exploring so far. #readingrightnow #booksky
