Gift guide for sourdough lovers

Gift Ideas for Sourdough Bakers

1. Bread Oven– I’ve swapped out my dutch oven for a bread oven and I’m obsessed! It’s so much easier to place my sourdough into because of the shallow base and it makes it easier to score directly in the bread oven.

2. Seedling Heat Mat– Sourdough starter loves heat and this seedling heat mat works so well for keeping my starter warm. I wrap it loosely around the jar, not actually touching the jar, and it has kept my sourdough starter thriving even in the cold months.

3. Danish Dough Whisk– Not only is this the ultimate dough mixer but due to the open design it gently mixes any kind of batter without the fear of tough baked treats due to over-beating. Plus they are handcrafted making them a lovely gift. Use coupon code CountryRoadsSourdough for 10% off.

4. NutriMill Grain Mill– Enjoy the benefits of milling your own flour and ensure fresh, pure flour every time. Use code Holiday50 for $50 off.

5. Sourdough Kit– Get all the sourdough tools in one kit and save! This is my favorite kit on Amazon and includes all my favorite tools plus a silicone baking mat which makes this kit unique.

6. Butter dish– You can’t have sourdough bread without butter. This cute butter dish will look good on any countertop.

7. Bread Knife– A sharp bread knife is essential for getting clean slices. A long, serrated knife works great. Trust me, nothing is worse than trying to cut bread with a crappy knife. I’ve had this one for several years and love it.

I also love my bow knife from Barlow & Co especially when cutting sandwich bread. Shop here and use coupon code CountryRoadsSourdough for 10% off.

8. Lanon Silicone Gloves– Safe from -100 to 480F these gloves make it easy to transport the bread in and out of the oven. I will say you can’t hold items for too long as they get hot but for short periods of times they are great. I use mine all the time! Use coupon code Countryroads15 for 15% off.

9. Apron– This crossback apron is so cute and comes in several colors.

10. Country Roads Sourdough Online Class– Experiences are my favorite things to gift. This is the gift that keeps on giving. From making a sourdough starter, caring for a starter, to the entire process of making a loaf of bread this comprehensive online class covers it all. Plus it includes recipes, sample schedules, a troubleshooting guide and more. It also includes a dehydrated sourdough starter for those in the United States. Use coupon code Holidays for $5 off through December 25th.

To purchase for someone else click “This is a gift” at checkout. Please reach out at [email protected] if you would like a printable gift card and the dehydrated sourdough starter mailed prior to Christmas to gift.

11. Kitchen Scale– Every sourdough baker should have a kitchen scale. It makes feeding your starter and making a loaf of bread so much easier and accurate.

12. Silicone Baking Mats– While parchment paper works just fine, these have been a game changer for me! First off, if you make a lot of bread you end up using so much parchment paper which gets expensive and feels wasteful. Second, parchment paper sometimes puts dents in the dough when baking and makes the loaf look wavy. These reusable mats are perfect! Plus, they can be thrown in the dishwasher for easy washing!

13. Bread Lame– A great stocking stuffer for a sourdough baker! A bread lame makes scoring beautiful designs on your bread easy and with precision.

14. Bread Box– Keep bread fresh for longer by storing it in a bread box. This pretty box is sure to look good on any countertop.

Bonus 15. Bosch– I just got the Bosch Mixer and I love it! Great for mixing all kinds of doughs. Use code Holiday50 for $50 off.

Gift Ideas for Bakers

1. Cutting Boards- This cutting board is not only functional but a beautiful piece to display in the kitchen. Use coupon code CountryRoadsSourdough for 10% off.

2. Rotating Cake Stand– Display cakes and other desserts on this beautiful cake stand. Another honorable mention is this cake stand which can be flipped over and used as a dip holder.

3. Food Dehydrator– A dehydrator is great for drying out fruits, herbs, yogurt, sourdough starter and more.

4. Loaf Pans– These loaf pans from USA Pans work so well. Great for making sandwich bread or other quick breads.

5. Mixing Bowls– The prettiest nesting bowls for mixing any sweet treats.

6. Salt Box– Pair this salt box with some flaky sea salt and it’s a match made in heaven. Flaky salt sprinkled on top is sure to elevate any treat.

7. Silicone Baking Mats– Swap our parchment paper for these reusable baking mats. Safe up to 480F and even dishwasher safe.

8. Whisk Wiper– No more messes when cleaning off your whisk. The whisk wiper cleans it off with ease. Also available for the kitchen aid stand mixer here. Use code 10sourdough for 10% off.
