Sourdough Discard Bread

Sourdough discard bread is a simple, flavorful way to bake with your starter between feedings, bringing a mild tang and soft, tender crumb to everyday loaves. These breads are typically quicker and less involved than traditional long-fermented loaves, but still offer that signature sourdough tang and tender crumb. You don’t need to wait for hours of fermentation, just mix, proof, and bake!

Use your discard to create soft, flavorful loaves like Sourdough Discard Sandwich Bread or this Crusty Sourdough Discard Loaf. It’s an easy, practical way to enjoy homemade bread while keeping your sourdough journey low-waste.
