Recipes: Beyond Your First Two Loaves

Your first two loaves are the beginning. Once your starter is established, it can become the foundation for breads, savory bakes, and discard recipes for years to come.

What would you like to bake next?

Everyday sourdough

Practice the classic loaf and learn how timing changes flavor and texture.

Focaccia

A soft, dimpled bake made for olive oil, herbs, and sharing.

Pizza night

Turn an active starter into a flavorful base for your favorite toppings.

Discard pancakes

Give removed starter a second life in a quick breakfast batter.

Crackers

A crisp, savory way to use discard with very little waste.

Flavor variations

Build on your core loaf with seeds, herbs, roasted garlic, or other recipe-tested additions.

A good next-step habit

  1. Keep your starter routine steady.
  2. Change only one variable at a time.
  3. Write down feeding, room temperature, fermentation time, and results.
  4. Repeat the bakes you love.
