Happy Fall Yaā€™ll!šŸ‚
I made this at the request of a friend of mine. She loves this sourdough that I make. It is amazing. The perfect mouth watering fall sourdough bread,ļæ¼ it will also leave your house smelling wonderful!

Orange, Craisin & Walnut Sourdough
This is your classic sourdough with that one tweak you will love - 340g water instead of 350g, plus the marmalade mixed right into the water + starter. It balances the extra sugar and moisture perfectly.
Ingredients:
ā€¢ 100g active, bubbly sourdough starter
ā€¢ 340g warm water
ā€¢ 150g all natural orange marmalade
ā€¢ 500g organic bread flour
ā€¢ 12g sea salt
ā€¢ Craisins - a generous handful or two, however much looks right to you
ā€¢ Walnuts - roughly chopped, same thing - a good handful!
ļæ¼ Add in the cranberries and walnuts during third and fourth stretch and fold continue making as you would a classic sourdough bake the same. I usually do a fancy round ļæ¼sourdough but my friends asked me to do it in a loaf pan so it was easier to cut. Enjoy!šŸ§”šŸ‚

Hoping for cooler weather soon, I made my Lipton Onion Soup Mix Sourdough today. One of our favorites for fall, pairs well with all kinds of soups and stews.
Absolutely delicious!
Classic Sourdough recipe with 1 1/2 packets of Lipton Onion Soup Mix, mixed in with starter and water. I adjust water to 360g water instead of the normal 350g. If you want it even more savory replace water with organic beef broth. This is a family favorite. Iā€™m making homemade navy bean and ham soup tomorrow to pair it withšŸ§”
(I will post a crumb pic tomorrow when I cut into it)
