Tin loaves are perfect for all of those family favourites like sandwiches, toasties and peanut butter on toast! Our sourdough recipe combines strong white bread flour with wholegrain flour to bring in extra fibre, with a touch of honey for subtle sweetness. A good glug of our Mellow Yellow cold pressed rapeseed oil helps to tenderise the loaf, resulting in a lovely soft interior and gorgeous golden crust.

We’ve used a variety of seeds in our recipe here, but you can experiment with different toppings to see what you enjoy most. If you don’t have a sourdough starter, switch to a half sachet of instant yeast, but be sure to keep an eye on gluten development! It’ll leaven the bread much quicker than sourdough so you’ll need to adjust the timings accordingly.

Similar to risotto, this Italian dish by Emily On Toast uses orzo instead of rice with a delicious topping inspired by pangrattato (an Italian recipe of fried breadcrumbs with garlic, often referred to as ‘poor man’s parmesan’).

Cheesy, creamy and comforting, the addition of lemon zest makes the flavours really pop, whilst our Mellow Yellow cold pressed rapeseed oil creates a golden breadcrumb topping that takes this dish up a level.

While the initial stage takes about 15 minutes, this recipe still takes less than 45 minutes to cook.

Deliziosa!
