First, a reminder that orders for next week will only be available on Friday, March 15th. I will still deliver to the college, and orders can be picked up at my home. If you are a Thursday subscriber, everything will be the same for pickup except the day. Please let me know if you have any questions, or if this will cause a problem for you for pickup. Thank you for being understanding!
When I can, I like to bake and cook seasonally. Winter has me craving hearty, stick-to-your-ribs foods, while summer is filled with garden salads and grilled everything! Morning glory muffins, available to order this coming week, feel like an exception. They are equally at home in any season! These beauties are made with sourdough starter for extra flavor, along with dried cherries, pumpkin seeds, coconut, walnuts, apple,freshly-milled whole wheat flour, and spices. I like so many things about these muffins, but I especially like that they are satisfying without too much sweet. They make for a great grab-and-go breakfast or snack, or a lovely addition to a brunch. Each order will contain 4 muffins. These should freeze well, so stock some away for another day!
My house sourdough is available every week – this is another good one with which to stock your freezer. When I thaw bread, I prefer to do that in the oven. I run the loaf under some water, then bake it at 300 for about 30 minutes, or until it’s (mostly) thawed. It can also just be thawed overnight, but I’ve found that the texture is better and closer to fresh-baked when I thaw loaves in the oven.
Orders can be placed on hillsdalehearth.com/shop until Tuesday evening, March 12th, and pickup will just be on Friday, March 15th this week. Payment is by cash, check, or cashapp on pickup, or by credit card on the website.
Please let me know if you have any questions, or if the Friday pickup poses a problem for you. I will be happy to work with you however I can!
