Banneton
While many sourdough bakers will already have a banneton (or two) - you can never have too many!
Honestly it will be very well received.
While most bakers will have a round banneton, why not gift a more unusual shape or size for something different. Here's an oval banneton for shaping a sourdough batard. This one is a triangle banneton for something more unusual. These are mini banneton which are perfect for making sourdough bread rolls.
These banneton are very unique and allow baker's to add a design to their bread while it's cold proofing.
