🍞 Sourdough Loaves

The Original Sourdough Loaf

Our Original Sourdough is a naturally leavened artisan loaf made with premium Sir Galahad flour and crafted using traditional methods. Each batch undergoes a slow, extended fermentation followed by an overnight cold proof, developing deep, complex flavor, improved digestibility, and a beautifully airy crumb. Baked fresh in small batches with no commercial yeast, preservatives, or additives, this loaf features a crisp golden crust and soft interior—perfect for toast, sandwiches, or simply enjoyed warm with butter.

The Cinnamon Swirl Sourdough loaf

Our Cinnamon Swirl Sourdough—a warm, nostalgic twist on our classic loaf, made from our original slow-fermented sourdough for deep flavor and a tender crumb. After the bulk ferment, the dough is carefully layered with rich brown sugar and fragrant cinnamon, then hand-shaped and cold-proofed to develop its structure and taste. Each loaf is baked to golden perfection, creating a crusty, caramelized exterior and a soft, aromatic interior that’s lightly sweet, delicately spiced, and comforting in every slice.

Garlic Rosemary Sourdough Loaf

Our Garlic Rosemary Sourdough begins with our signature naturally leavened dough made from premium Sir Galahad flour and slow-fermented for exceptional flavor and texture. Fresh garlic and aromatic rosemary are folded into the dough, creating a savory loaf with a crisp golden crust and soft, airy interior. The extended fermentation enhances the depth of flavor, allowing the herbs and garlic to shine without overpowering the classic sourdough character. Baked fresh in small batches with no commercial yeast, preservatives, or additives, this loaf is perfect for pairing with pasta, dipping in olive oil, or serving alongside your favorite meal.

Everything bagel sourdough Loaf

A naturally leavened sourdough, slow-fermented for depth and character, then finished with a generous hand of everything seasoning. Folded into the dough just before shaping and pressed onto the crust before its cold rest, the flavors settle in and deepen overnight. Baked to a crackling crust with a tender, open crumb, this loaf carries notes of garlic, onion, sesame, and poppy throughout—savory, aromatic, and deeply satisfying. Best torn, toasted, and shared.

"I've had the honor of enjoying several of these delicious homemade loaves! They are always superb! I love being able to wake up and toast up a slice with peanut butter and curl up on the couch! It is without shame that I will say that I've almost fought my preteen son for the last slice...he won...but still, it's that good!"
