The Local Loaf

The Local Loaf Home-baked breads made in small batches by me, Shaana, and shared locally in Greene County, Illinois.

From sourdough to fresh-milled loaves, everything is made with simple ingredients and traditional methods.

I have two loaves of 100% Fresh Milled Flour bread available. $8 each.

Fresh milled flour bread is made from whole grains that are freshly ground right before baking, so it tastes richer, more wholesome, and slightly nutty compared to store-bought bread. You can expect a more filling, nutrient-dense loaf with a soft interior and rustic, hearty texture.

This is what happens when you try to be cool and have your daughter film an “unboxing” of your new grain mill 🤣

I have to add that beforehand she asked me if I wanted to fix my hair or change my clothes 😅 🙊 I declined 🤪

At the end you can hear her say “DON’T POST THIS!” but it was too funny to not share 😂
Hey, if we can’t laugh at ourselves….and let others laugh at us, then where’s the fun???? 😉

Happy Friday!

Man, this week has been FULL!! I didn’t post any offerings because I have been busy with CUSTOM ORDERS!! I definitely did not expect such a positive response to my bread baking, but goodness, I sure am grateful!

I’ll be working on more orders today, but if I get crazy and make too much I’ll be sure to post! Remember, I do take orders if you need something!

To get perfect slices, turn the loaf on its side and slice, sawing back and forth with medium pressure with a bread knife. By turning it on its side, you will avoid smashing the crumb. See the pictures for proof 😉
