Another bread variant, this time with pumpkin seeds. I used quite a bit of full spelt flour and tried to get a better crust, which turned out especially well.

Wraps

Wraps on their own are not really that tasty compared to other flat breads such as naan. However, they are very diverse as once can fill them with pretty much anything. The trick is to get them as thin as possible but still soft wo one can roll them easily afterward.

Fast Flat Bread

I recently ran out of bread, though graved for some wheat based side dish to a salad. Usually I go for my fast naan bread in such situations though I decided to try something new. The result was a mix between the naan bread and a tortilla recipe I’m currently experimenting with. And it was delicious!

Dark Rye Bread

It is time for some new types of bread. This one has a higher sourdough portion which results in a dense consistency and more tangy and intense taste. The taste is good, but shaping it was a pain. It might be a good beginners bread though if you do use a bread baking form to bake it in.

Spiced Bread (with 23c timetable)

Winter is coming and I do feel the urge to step up my baking game again. To do so I want to get a better feeling of fermentation times in relation to room temperatures by writing down the timetables for the baked loafs. This one I spiced with anise, caraway and coriander.

Fast Focaccia

Sourdough is inferior to any yeast based dough. Period. And while this does hold true for focaccia, I do make yeast based variants more often than I would like to admin. It is super easy and one of my feel good meals if I want some bread based meal fast.

Kornspitz was one of my favorite bread pastries as a child. I have not made them in years and never tried to it with sourdough. For a first try this recipe was a pretty nice success.

Bread Shaping

Bread shaping is an important step between bulk fermentation and proofing when baking sourdough bread. It was one, if not the most neglected step in bread baking on mine for nearly a decade. Though shaping your bread correctly can really up your game if done right.

Potato Walnut Rye Bread

This bread is heavily inspired by a German cooking blog. Usually I do not follow recipes that closely but rather figure them out by trial and error. Though this potato walnut bread did sound very interesting and was far from what I usually bake. So I had to try it.

Onion Bread

I used to make onion bread quite a lot during the first years of my studies. However, I somehow forgot about this type of bread until recently. Back then I used to mostly bake with yeast, though the taste is even better with a sourdough base.

Cinnamon Rolls

My favorite vegan pastry. In general I always prefer the vegetarian ingredients as butter and milk over their vegan counterparts. This recipe however, thanks to tons of sugar and cinnamon, is one where the difference in taste is barely noticeable, even in a side by side comparison.

My attempt of creating a rosemary salt crust for baguettes (or bread in general). This can be applied to any kind of bread and works perfectly in combination with a proofing basked.
