A little look at my October menu! ✨🍂

From fluffy, bubbly focaccias to rich chocolate mousse cake, fresh orange loaf slices and delicious stuffed naans — this month’s menu was filled with homemade goodness and lots of love. 🤎

Everything was made from scratch, with care in every step, from mixing and baking to the little details of packing each order. 🥰 There’s something so satisfying about seeing everything come together and packing it all up, ready to bring a little homemade happiness to someone’s table. 🎁🍞🍰

When in doubt make a chocolate almond babka!!

My way of thanking all my colleagues at work.

The best part of making bread is the gentle hand kneading and feeling the dough by hand. Brioche buttery bread, slathered generously with chocolate almond paste, drizzled with warm cinnamon sugar syrup, dusted with some powdered sugar and adorned with almond flakes.

I must admit a good bread is more like a baby, tender loving care and lots of patience for the dough to rise bubble up beautifully!!

And with an added new gear for photography from my son, I must admit we did overindulge in some pictures. Finally I couldn't decide which one looked better. Let me know which one you liked?

A warm soft cooked oats loaf, with a different kind of filling.

Almond butter rolls. Decorated with a few sliced almonds. Almond croissant filling but not laminated dough, but it turned out mildly sweet and so so addictive. Couldn't last even a day!!!

Pumpkin rolls in cinnamon sugar....a little bit of inspiration to include pureed veggies into your bread dough. Nice plump sweet and yellow pumpkin giving all the natural hugs. It has some added spices from the paratha mix to mask the strong pumpkin flavour and a little bit of cinnamon sugar to roll it out and then bake!!!

A simple father's day bake.

It's a brownie cookie pie...a healthy indulgent take on this recipe. Made entirely from inhouse millet blend and yes it really did surprise me. I could hear so many oomphs and aahhs from the people who tasted it!!

I love how a simple blend of ingredients can transform to something so beautiful yet so soulful. This one was an experimental bake no weighing, no script, just an idea of how it should feel like...just go with the flow and feel of the dough.

Trying my best to include a variety of grains in my baking. Surely the millets didn't disappoint. Actually they taste soo good, never going back again. Why should wheat have all the fun!!!

Completely gluten free millet brownies. I am not exaggerating as this was the last tiny piece I got to click after baking a big batch. So fudgy and addictive these were. It was one of those experimental days when I want to be innovative. Credit goes to all the foodie accounts I binge watch!!

A little about the star ingredient here, Jowar flour or sorghum. I love how jowar flour imparts a unique taste and texture to baked goods. And yes it's one of those kitchen staples which I cannot live without. You get it in different forms here. Available as a whole grain which makes excellent crispy dosas or as a substitute to rice, you get coarse grits which makes really amazing upma or soft porridge and then the flour which making amazing bread, cookies and crackers.

Have you cooked with Jowar?
Do you want me to share some recipes here, let me know, I am all ears!!

A sourdough sandwich loaf. It looks like a normal slice, but it really exceeded all my expectations!!

So it all started with soaking up some purple and brown wheat berries and few teaspoons of whole bajra. Washed and soaked. Drained and ground to a thick batter. Rest added sourdough starter, salt, wholemeal flour and waited for the magic to happen.
It took me two days from soaking, shaping to baking. But it was all worth the wait.

If you are in Auckland and looking to experiment with some healthy flours, my go to place is Bulk Food Savings . Do check them out. They have pretty decent stock of so many interesting flours. This is not a paid promotion !! Just a baker learning to find your baking things in a new place. I miss some things, but also I am in awe of the new things I get to try.

Also if you like baking, comment down your favourite place to shop for baking ingredients in Auckland.

These were some nostalgic scrumptious egg puffs made by my dear friend as part of our final fundraiser at the AMHS badminton club. So happy, we could collect more than what we aimed for. Also previleged by the kindness and warmth of all the members of the club who came forward to buy the goodies that a small team put forwarded.

Just a small gesture to support and give a little back to the places that matter the most. To all the amazing people who work at Starship Hospital.

Thank you for all the love and support.
