About The Crumb Cottage Recipe Blog

Welcome to The Crumb Cottage, a cozy corner of the internet where flour dust lingers in the air, sourdough bubbles on the counter, and every recipe tells a story.

I'm Demi, the baker behind The Crumb Cottage, and this blog was created to share my love of homemade baking, simple ingredients, and the joy that comes from creating something from scratch. At the heart of it all is Myrtle, my faithful sourdough starter, who inspires many of the recipes you'll find here.

The Crumb Cottage began with a simple passion for baking and a desire to bring a little more warmth and comfort into everyday life. What started with a single loaf of sourdough has grown into a collection of recipes, baking tips, and kitchen adventures that I am excited to share with you.

Here you'll find:

• Sourdough bread recipes for every skill level
• Discard recipes that reduce waste and maximize flavor
• Muffins, scones, cookies, crackers, and other baked treats
• Seasonal recipes inspired by cozy cottage living
• Baking tips, troubleshooting guides, and helpful tutorials
• Stories from my kitchen and the journey behind each bake

My approach to baking is simple: embrace the process, enjoy the imperfections, and create food that brings people together. Whether you're an experienced baker or just beginning your sourdough journey, you'll always find encouragement, inspiration, and a welcoming place at The Crumb Cottage.

So grab a cup of coffee or tea, pull up a chair, and stay awhile. I'm so glad you're here.

From my cottage kitchen to yours, welcome home.
