New month, new challenge! And this time there are MORE ways to win! Bagels have been on my mind lately because I’ve always made them with all white bread flour. This month I’m going to challenge myself to incorporate more whole grains into them and finally give up the hole poke method. I’ve partnered with my favorite heat-resistant glove brand @bake.lanon for this challenge.
TO ENTER:
-Bake any kind of bagel, any time this month.
-Share your bakes with the hashtags #HoldTheBagel and #CiaoBellaBakeAlong
-Be following @ciaobellabreads and @bake.lanon
Enter as many times as you would like throughout the entire month of April.
WHAT YOU CAN WIN:
-At the end of the month one person will be selected to win a pair of Lanon heat-resistant gloves.
-Every Friday one person will be selected to receive a copy of my sourdough bagel guide. The first Friday, I will select from people who have liked this post.
-Each bake is an entry into the grand prize drawing at the end of the year for a grain mill.
We are so excited to see what you come up with!

Flour 🌾 Water 💦 Salt 🧂…
No shortcuts, no secrets. Just consistency, patience, and showing up week after week.
It never gets old, lifting the lid, seeing the oven spring, the crust, the ear 🤩. That moment feels like magic every single time.
Simple ingredients, intentional process and beautiful results.
And btw…
My bread is not raw.
Not underbaked.
Not anemic.
Not pale.
Not “still doughy in the middle” 🤣
It’s just halfway through baking 😉Trust the process. The color comes later.
🥰 What’s your favorite part of the sourdough process?
Wishing you a peaceful and warm Shabbat 🤍
Shabbat Shalom ✨

Honestly… there’s something so enjoyable about baking with tools that actually make the process easier and smoother 💛
I’ve been loving how spacious this cast iron dutch oven is, perfect for bigger loaves, sourdough, focaccia, and honestly whatever yummy bake you’re in the mood for 👀✨
And can we talk about how beautiful the loaves come out? 😍 That crispy crust, the shape, the oven spring… sooo good.
It’s one of those kitchen tools that makes the whole experience feel more effortless and enjoyable from start to finish ✨
Nothing like good tools that help you slow down, enjoy the process, and create beautiful homemade bread 💛🍞

This is turning into my floral print sihouette series. I am madly immersed in my garden when I’m not in the kitchen baking and cooking. We’ve expanded our garden again adding in more vegetables and flowers. I never have to look far for inspiration when I’m always immersed in its bounty. It’s just a matter of which 🥰
The hellebore bloom is actually the sepal (a modified leaf). They create the most exquisite perfectly shape floral pattern with a subtle dusting of flour. You’ve got to try! 🌸

Slow Sunday energy, fresh honey oat sourdough, and the kind of crunch that makes you pause for a second 💛🍞✨
Sometimes the best moments are the simple ones… warm bread, a quiet day, and a little time to enjoy what was made with love.
