Gluten-free sourdough pizzas! This was the first test of our new #ooni pizza oven. 24hr fermented dough, baked in 60 seconds @ 800f. Very happy with these first few 5" pies.

We are hoping to bring this little oven to #ixpark market and fire off some fresh pizza for you in the future. We will keep you posted!

Feeling good about these par-baked gluten-free pizza crusts! I am hopeful they will be available at the market soon. Still have to figure out how to store/freeze a large quantity of them without squishing.

Just a friendly reminder that I won't be at the IX market tomorrow! We are taking a few more days off, and will return to the kitchen next week. Until then, enjoy this shot of Caleb being a goof at Bottom Creek in Floyd, VA.

Oof. These last few weeks have been challenging. Wild swings from underproofed to overproofed dough (as seen here), fluctuating temps and humidity, power outages...good practice to laugh at our humble attempts to put nature in a box and our expectations for it to stay there.

Sourdough pizza rolls tomorrow @ IX market! Will bake these with a topping of mozzarella, sauce and herbs at 5am tomorrow morning. There will only be a dozen, so plan for breakfast pizza. They can be refrigerated (maybe frozen? I haven't tried) and warmed if you need to wait.

There will also be cinnamon raisin rolls + all the bread. Can't wait to see ya'll!

The honey oat loaves are looking good today. @chaoticgoodtempeh, should I save you one? 🍞❤️🍕

GoFundMe update: Big News!
An angel investor has committed to support The Homestead Oven in a big way.

They have made the offer that if we can raise a total of $5000 (or beyond), they will make up the difference! There is a little over $2000 left to raise to reach that goal, and I have no doubt we will get there over the next several months. I am beyond grateful for everyone's support, and cannot wait to share the next steps as they unfold.

Honestly, I am not very good at hyping up a campaign and posting a lot for it. Partly because I'd just rather be making bread and experimenting with new inspirations. Also partly because asking for help is hard, and I feel vulnerable putting myself out there in this way.

I have worked on my own and been mostly self-employed for my entire adult life, and the realization that I actually can't take this next step by myself is a challenging one. Yet I also feel the gift in it, calling me forward into that scary yet strangely familiar place.

That said, to continue the momentum, I'll be bringing a few Cinnamon Raisin and Cranberry Walnut rolls to IX market tomorrow. The profit from each one sold will go straight to the fundraiser.

Thank you all for your ongoing support. This gluten-free baking endeavor feels so much bigger than myself, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of it.

If you want to learn more about the campaign, there is a link in the bio.

I got a fun new toy. The hyper-perfectionist in me is momentarily soothed. I am hoping this tabletop dough sheeter is going to help me get some tasty treats out to you more consistently. First up, laminated cinnamon rolls!

What's this? @homesteadoven and @goodphyte, two local Charlottesville gluten-free creatives? Is this a random friendly photo-op...or...could it mean something more?

Some big news is going to drop soon, and it is going rock your gluten-free, bread loving, snack craving world! Or, at the very least, it might make your weekly shopping trips a little more convenient. Either way, I'm excited to share more in the coming weeks.

Stay tuned!
