The Most Exciting Sourdough Recipe I’ve Baked In 2025 (So Far)


Hello Reader,

Lately, I’ve been in a bit of a focaccia frenzy. Fluffy, golden-edged sourdough topped with… well, just about anything I can get my hands on.

From herbs and olive to sweet figs and honey — it’s the easiest way to keep your sourdough baking exciting (and your dinner table full of showstoppers).

But the crown jewel? My Sourdough Almond Croissant Focaccia.


Yes, you read that right.


It’s hands-down the most exciting thing I’ve baked in 2025 so far — and I can also safely say I won’t be making it often… because I devoured the whole thing in two days. Alone. No regrets (but also… oops).

If you fancy jazzing up your bakes, I’m sharing some of my absolute favourite focaccia recipes for you below:

A mash-up of two absolute icons — fluffy sourdough focaccia and famous French bakery almond croissants — this bake is stuffed with a gooey frangipane filling and topped with flaked almonds and icing sugar.

Hello Reader, My discard jar has hit that point where it's less "useful byproduct" and more "passive-aggressive reminder that I haven't baked bread in five days." So this week it's going into cake. Three of them, actually. SOURDOUGH LEMON BLUEBERRY LOAF CAKE SOURDOUGH PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE SOURDOUGH COURGETTE (ZUCCHINI) QUICK BREAD First up, the Lemon Blueberry Sourdough Cake. Properly lemony, not vaguely-citrus lemony, packed with blueberries that mostly stay where you put them, and...

Cheesy sourdough garlic rolls in a baking pan

Hello Reader, Today’s email is brought to you by cheese, garlic, sourdough, and the firm belief that savoury bakes deserve more spotlight. I’ve got a new recipe on the blog, and it’s a good one: Sourdough Cheese and Garlic Rolls Think cinnamon rolls, but savoury. Soft sourdough dough, rolled up with garlic butter and cheese, baked until golden, gooey and entirely impossible to leave alone. They are perfect with summer BBQs, big salads, soups, picky bits dinners… or, let’s be honest, eaten...

Hello Reader, If the whole boule shaping + Dutch oven + fancy gear thing has been making you quietly panic... you’re not alone. And here’s the good news: You can bake sourdough in a regular loaf tin.
