This is the easiest bread you'll ever make! Trust me…you can do this!  If you've been intimidated to jump into Unsifted, this is your perfect gateway bread! You don't need a mixer or any special gadgets and it's roughly 30 minutes start to finish. 

I use this bread all the time for garlic bread, meatball sandwiches, toasted paninis, a quick dinner bread, and my personal favorite....Italian Bruschetta. After my husband and I got back from Italy, several years ago/pre-kids, he set out to find bruschetta that tasted authentic to what we had in Florence, Tuscany and Rome. This is a close match to our Italy experience.  You have to try it! It's the perfect appetizer for a dinner party, makes a delicious topping for your fresh flour pizza crust, is an easy fresh and light summer lunch, or this week my family had it with fresh flour noodles to curate the full Italian theme!

These are the softest snickerdoodles and you'll never guess they are loaded with whole grain nutrition.  I am shocked at how soft these cookies stay after they cool.  I do feel like I need to warn you….they are addicting! 

Did you know that cream of tartar is technically called potassium bitartrate?  One teaspoon contains 495 mg of potassium.  So by using cream of tartar for this recipe you're getting approximately 33 mg of added potassium into your diet from this ingredient alone.  Combined with the approximate potassium in the Dessert Berry Blend you're now up to a total 71 mg per cookie.  It's not the recommended 3,500 mg RDI per day, but it's pretty darn good for a COOKIE!  And its still helpful if you're like most of the population and deficient in potassium.  Unfortunately our soil has become demineralized due to acid rain and other factors, so its important to ensure you're enough of the right minerals as they all work together.  As one nih.gov studies states, "Insufficient potassium intakes can increase blood pressure, kidney stone risk, bone turnover, urinary calcium excretion, and salt sensitivity (meaning that changes in sodium intakes affect blood pressure to a greater than normal extent)."

This homemade buttery fresh flour pie crust uses 100% whole grains, via our four grain Dessert Blend, and 100% real butter.  It is flaky and can hold up to the savory weight of a chicken pot pie or sweet filling of a delicious apple pie.  I am a huge pie fan, but I am also pretty particular, because all crusts are not created equal.  I had arguably the best all-purpose crust recipe from my grandma, so I was initially nervous about fresh flour for pie crusts. I realize this is probably a non-issue for most people, but my family and I are rotisserie-chicken-pot-pie lovers, so I'm thrilled to share what I've been working on and what we've been loving. This one is loved by my family and I love the added nutrients and fiber they get while eating this delicious dessert!
