Great Harvest Bread

100% Delicious
BREAD AND SWEETS


All our Whole Wheat breads are made with flour we mill fresh each day, and none of our products contain High Fructose Corn Syrup.  Complete ingredient labels will allow you to check all ingredients, and we will be very pleased to answer your questions any time about what goes in to our breads. All our breads this month except Rye (Molasses) and Brioche (Cane Sugar) are sweetened with honey. Our Rye breads are Vegan with no egg wash.  Cedar River Sourdough is unsweetened entirely and is also Vegan as are our Baguettes and French bread.   Please keep giving us your input about dietary preferences so that we can make informed menu choices in the future.  Any of our breads like Dakota or High 5 Fiber that are topped with seeds or grain or flour instead of a shiny top are free of Eggs but do usually contain Honey.  Stop by any time or phone to discuss this with Dion, Laurel, Mark or Rosslyn.  In the meantime, please check back with us here every month as we highlight new breads being introduced.  Our menu will be changing often.  The following is the December Menu.  Breads in bold below can be sliced for your sandwich.

IT TAKES MORE TIME AND ATTENTION TO MAKE A
LOAF FROM SCRATCH, BUT THE TASTE IS WORTH IT.

OUR FAVORITE BREADS:

Honey Whole Wheat

Our signature and most popular bread is a perfect blend of five pure ingredients – freshly ground, flavor-rich, 100% whole wheat flour, pure honey, filtered water, salt, and yeast.

Dakota

Sunflower, pumpkin, and sesame seeds are generously kneaded into our honey whole wheat dough for a crunchy, hearty, and flavourful bread.

Cinnamon Chip

Enjoy the sweet goodness of cinnamon chips in every bite. Flour, cinnamon chips, honey, and ground cinnamon. Makes a heavenly French toast.

Challah Wreaths for Thanksgiving and Christmas

We accept pre-orders for special Challah wreaths for the holidays.  Each wreath has two loaves worth of Challah dough and is suitable for festive gatherings of large groups.  We only make these for pre-order, so please plan accordingly.  You may order one for pick up the Wednesday before Thanksgiving or really any Thursday if we have your pre-order by Wednesday.




Cheddar Garlic!

After a month off, this soft white cheesy scrumptious loaf is back to help us enjoy our cool month weekends.  Stop by and taste it next Friday.  You will want to buy a loaf.  We also make a limited number of hamburger buns each week, but you may pre-order.  These will make an easy and delicious dinner any time or a phenomenal breakfast sandwich!  Call by Thursday to pre-order to be sure we don't run out of buns before you get in on Friday.  

Jalapeno Cheddar Sourdough Swirl,  made most days at the bakery in limited quantities, is a savory treat with a bit of a bite for those of you who enjoy the taste of Jalapenos.  It's not overwhelmingly spicy and is delightful with a spread of jam as well as just as a savory treat.  Come and pick up a loaf!  

Friday is Rye Day at the Bakery

We trade off between Pumpernickel and American Rye recipes, changing it up every month.  Call ahead to be sure of a loaf on Friday.  These are delicious traditional Caraway Rye breads!

Pumpkin Pie Bread

This delicious swirl of pumpkin packed dough with Cinnamon Sugar Swirl is a seasonal treat not to be missed.
