Secret ingredient (not very secret 😅): little cubes of comté cheese in my fruit and nut sourdough loaf. Made last week. Delicious, the cheese melts and leaves squarish holds (swipe to see). Strong white, wholewheat, sprouted buckwheat flour, plus there's apricots, dried figs, pecans, walnuts, sesame seeds... 😋😋😋 Will try with my usual sourdough recipe to see if can get more open crumb though it tastes delish anyway..😋👍 - - - #homemadeloaf #sourdoughloaf #fruitandnutloaf #comtecheese #cheese #driedapricots #nuts #sesameseeds #sproutedbuckwheatflour #wholewheatflour #marriagesstrongwhitebreadflour #sourdough #naturalstarter #pandemasamadre #pademassamare #painaulevain #yummybread #sourdoughbread #sourdoughbaking #foodies #foodphotography #eatmorebread #healthierbread #nomnom 😋🍞🧀💚

Lovely stuff you guys made from the blog!

A stunning Gâteau Moka by Kate in Cornwall. The piping is wonderful and she was very pleased with it. She also mentions the cake was delish! :)

A fabulous Raspberry charlotte by Kate! Loads of raspberries and great sponge finger casing! The assembly part was actually really easy! and ‘it tasted amazing’ she says, adding it ‘will definitely become a regular pudding in our household!’

Scrumptious orange & rum fruitcake-cake Anglais by Stéphanie in Tahiti ‘This cake is just delicious :) I brought one in the office today and it just vanished in a few minutes! Every one loved it :)’ she reports. Lovely local rum, vanilla, honey!

Yummy wholemeal spelt croissants by Dookes. Very well-shaped and nicely risen too! ‘For a first attempt I have to say I’m pretty pleased. They certainly pass the taste test’ says Dookes.

Extremely tasty-looking Lamingtons by Annette in New Zealand. Lovely and moist even without cream inside, she reports. So tempting piled up on that pretty plate. Yum!

Lovely brioche rolls made by Annette in New Zealand! ‘They turned out really well thanks, my boys certainly enjoyed them, all gone now!’ she reports. But be careful – she noticed that if you don’t use invert sugar or honey but just caster sugar, you’ll need to add a little extra water.

A delicious seed and nut loaf made by Claudette in London. She reports ‘cannot stop eating it … it is really delicious’ And she used more pumpkin than sunflower seeds and a little chestnut flour too.

A beautiful orange and rum fruitcake-cake Anglais fruitcake made by Dookes! Looks moist and delicious! Dookes’ comments: ‘seriously good!’ and ‘fantastico’!! You can find the guest post recipe at http://wp.me/p2sQo3-US And Dookes’ cake report is at https://hogriderdookes.wordpress.com/2015/03/18/lilis-biker-cake-made-and-tasted/ on his Hogrider Dookes blog.

A fantastic slice of Apple tarte tatin with Chinese 5 spices and Tamarind by Claudette, aka mum! :) It was very nice and using maple syrup is ‘genius’ she reports. The Pink Lady apples used were ‘lovely, juicy and firm’ and cooked on the ring a little over 10 mins. Plus the pastry browned quite quickly so was covered with foil towards the end.

Perfect healthy spelt digestive biscuits by Claudette in London. So yummy for tea! :)
