Our First Two Weeks at the Farmer's Market

Farmer's Market May 8, 2013

Our first week at the Leavenworth Farmer's Market was very successful! We SOLD OUT of everything by 5:30! Our second week went almost as well. There were fewer people overall, but we had FOUR repeat customers! We really enjoyed meeting some new customers as well. We're so glad you all stopped by and hope to see you again next Wednesday.

In related news, we will be joining Lamborn Farm for their new Farmer's Market! This Farmer's Market will take place on Friday evenings from 4-8 p.m. beginning June 7th. We're excited to bring our gluten-free baked goods to more people!

Gluten-free and dairy-free Cinnamon Swirl Bread

Our Cinnamon Swirl Bread was a big hit! While we love it plain or toasted with some butter, it also makes wonderful French toast, or a French toast casserole. Both are a great way to use up stale or dry bread. If you use our regular Honey Millet Bread, you could try it with some savory seasonings instead of sweet, and it would be similar to a quiche. This is a very forgiving recipe, you can easily adjust the amounts to suit your tastes and what you have on hand.

French Toast Casserole

Butter a casserole dish. Cut bread (Cinnamon Swirl or Honey Millet or both) into cubes and place evenly in the dish. Mix up several eggs and some milk (we use Silk Almond Milk) with a little bit of vanilla extract, some sugar, a dash or two of nutmeg, and ground cinnamon. Pour over the cubes, making sure you have enough to cover the cubes almost completely. Press the cubes down into the liquid with the back of a large spoon and let them soak up the mixture while you preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve with maple syrup.

Gluten-free Hamburger Buns!

I am hard at work on Hamburger Buns right now. These have a wonderful flavor and hold up beautifully without breaking or crumbling. I think they are still a bit too dense, so I'm trying to lighten them up a bit. Hopefully we will have these ready to sell within the next few weeks.

Have a blessed day!
