Bread: Reintroducing Our Luscious Loaves

Consider today’s post as a tantalizing introduction of what is coming.

Did you know that we offer homemade bread at Love Led Farm?

A couple of years  ago, I added a line of breads to our list of products.  My  daughter and I share a love of bread making and have stumbled upon some successes that we enjoy sharing with other people–like you.   My original idea was to allow our customers to call ahead and then arrange a pick up day for same-day fresh loaves.

Let’s make it even easier.

First, take a look at the newly updated Bread  Page on our website.  I am starting the year by narrowing the selections to two:  something from Love Led Farm; and something from Flourful Bake Shop.  Both are among the best of what we make, voted as favorites by our families and friends.

Fresh from the oven

Oatmeal Spelt Bread from Love Led Farm is considered an Ancient Grain Bread.  This is an everyday bread that stays moist and fresh for several days.  I love it for toast, sandwiches, and even french toast.

I discovered this recipe years ago and made the bread for my family on a regular basis.  When we discovered that my husband is gluten sensitive, I adjusted the recipe, using spelt instead of “normal” wheat flour.  The change has helped him without altering the taste of this delicious bread.  Although spelt contains some gluten, many people find it easier to digest.   Take a look at the pure, simple ingredients.  Then, try a loaf for yourself.  I guarantee you’ll enjoy it as much as we do.

My daughter, Meg, has had problems with gluten all of her life.  In earlier years, we tried to find gluten-free alternatives for her.  Most were highly disappointing.  Her professional culinary training allowed her to develop her own recipes with great success.

Gluten-free english muffins

Meg’s Gluten-free English Muffins are what my husband eats for breakfast almost every day.  Quite honestly, I prefer them to  any store-bought, full-gluten english muffin I have ever tasted.  Toast with a topping of Love Led Farm Raw Honey for a hearty treat that will  keep you satisfied all morning.

Now, who wants to try some bread?

During the first few days of March (March 19) we will have samples of both products available in our farm shop freezer.  When you stop by for eggs, you will also be able to pick up both a mini loaf of Oatmeal Spelt Bread and one of Meg’s Gluten-free English Muffins, your’s free just to try.

From then on, you will have two choices.  You can either contact me ahead of time with your order or just open the freezer door.  Both of our breads will be ready and waiting for you.

Throughout the year, Meg and I hope to expand your choices with more mouthwatering breads.  For now, though, only one question remains:  To Gluten or Not to Gluten?  That is your question to answer.

For any other questions about our breads or other products, feel free to contact me at any time.

Warmly,
