Hayden Flour Mills is a family business working to revive heritage and ancient grains in the desert. We have revitalized the tradition that started in Tempe, Arizona, over 125 years ago by Charles Hayden and his Hayden Flour Mills. While not milled at the iconic Hayden Flour Mills’ building, our fresh flour harkens back to a time when flour still was full of nutrients and flavor.

☀ Happy first day of summer! Warm days call for bright, easy plates, and these little flowers are ready for the season. Campanelle's scooped, ruffled shape holds onto everything, like this fresh lemony pasta salad (link in below for recipe).

Our newest bread flour, the Founder's Blend, has malted White Sonora flour. If you're new to baking with malted flour, here are a few small adjustments you can make that will go a long way.
👀 Watch your bulk fermentation. Malt speeds things up. Watch your dough carefully and end bulk fermentation a touch earlier than usual.
💦 Lower your hydration by 2 to 3%. Broken-down starches hold water differently. A slightly drier dough behaves better.
🌡 Bake to 208 to 212°F internal temp. The extra enzyme activity means the crumb needs more time to fully set.
🍞 Let it cool fully before slicing, at least 2 hours and ideally 4. Warm bread with malt almost always feels gummier than it actually is.

The Founder's Blend rewards patience, the same patience that built a mill on a riverbank two hundred years ago.

Meet Campanelle, the pasta shaped like little ruffled flowers. Bronze cut and slow dried, those fluted petals and hollow centers are made to catch and hold whatever you cook them in, so every bite comes with flavor and a little flourish. Our friends at Sonoran Pasta made this small batch just for us and just for a little while. These flowers won't be in season long.

Inside The Founder's Blend: so what's in the bag? Stone milled hard red spring Vitrea Wheat. A touch of Blue Beard Durum. High-protein white bread flour. And a small measure of malted White Sonora, the quiet workhorse of the blend.

Malted wheat is sprouted wheat that's been dried and milled. The sprouting wakes up natural enzymes that feed your starter, deepen your crust, and add a soft malty sweetness underneath the wheat's nuttiness.

Small ingredient. Big presence.

Before Arizona was Arizona, Charles Hayden was already shaping it.

A ferry across the Salt River. A flour mill on its bank. A town that grew up around the mill and eventually became Tempe. Two hundred years after his birth, we're still milling grain on the strength of one simple idea: that this land, treated well, could feed a region.

The Founder's Blend, our newest product, is our tribute to him. This limited-edition flour is built for the oldest way of baking bread we know: sourdough!

Baking isn’t just a recipe. It’s a conversation.

And stone milled flour has a lot to say. Our flour is grown in the Arizona desert, milled with the whole grain still in it, and it behaves differently than what you’re used to. It drinks more water. It ferments faster. It rewards bakers who pay attention.

We wrote down everything we’ve learned about working with it. Link in bio for the full guide.

Meet spelt.

An ancient grain Europe has baked with for thousands of years. Industrial mills dropped it because the hull is stubborn. We didn’t, because the flavor is worth it.

We sent a bag to and she came back with a 100% spelt sandwich loaf. Recipe and flour both in our bio.

Freshly stone milled in Arizona.
