August hits and I’m all in on fall baking. And these sourdough pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are one of my favorite fall desserts.

Made with discard, pumpkin puree, and brown butter, these cookies are soft, chewy, and have just the right amount of pumpkin spice.

No need to preheat? Not so fast…

I’ve seen people say there’s no need to preheat your Dutch oven before baking sourdough, so I decided to actually test it.

I made a double batch of dough, then split, shaped, and cold-proofed both loaves overnight. The next morning, I baked them side by side:

🔥 One went into a fully preheated Dutch oven
❄️ The other went into a cold Dutch oven

And in my experiment? The preheated Dutch oven was the clear winner.

Better oven spring and better crust development.

So now I’m curious…

Do you preheat your Dutch oven before baking sourdough, or do you put your dough into a cold one?

Ever wonder what it’d be like to eat a loaded baked potato in a loaf of bread? No? Well I have 😂 so I did exactly that.

I folded crispy bacon, shredded cheddar, savory chives, and yes… actual baked potato pieces into a loaf of sourdough. And it’s surprisingly really delicious!

Savory, cheesy, and perfect for toast or sandwiches, this loaded baked potato sourdough bread is a MUST try for all my baked potato lovers out there.

Shaping sourdough used to be my least favorite step 😬

I’d get so nervous wondering if I was doing it right, or would all that hard work of fermenting the dough be for nothing?

But shaping is actually a really important step to master. Here’s why:

🍞 it redistributes air bubbles for a more even crumb
🍞 it strengthens the gluten structure so the dough holds its shape
🍞 it builds surface tension so your loaf rises up instead of spreading out

Here’s my simple method for shaping both round and oval loaves:

1️⃣ Turn your dough out and gently shape it into a rough rectangle
2️⃣ Fold the top down, then the bottom up over it (like a letter)
3️⃣ Repeat with the other sides
4️⃣ Flip it seam-side down and use your hands to gently drag it against the counter to create tension
5️⃣ For a round loaf, you’re done here
6️⃣ For an oval, gently pull it toward yourself to elongate

🫶🏻 Save this to follow along next time you shape your dough
