Remember these?? 👀

After a couple weeks off the menu, scones are making their return tonight at 7 PM! 🎉

And judging by how quickly some of the other favorites have been disappearing lately… I have a feeling these won’t stick around for long.

So if you’ve been waiting for your favorite scone to make its way back into the bakery lineup, tonight is your night.

Menu drops tonight at 7 PM for Friday, October 16th porch pickup in Evergreen Park.

Set your alarm. ⏰
Have your favorites ready.
And maybe don’t wait too long. 😉

See you at 7! 🤎

This is going to be so much fun!

Put Nov. 19th on your calendar for a fun night out and stop by to grab some sourdough while you’re there. 🎄❤️

The biggest compliment to a small business isn’t a sale. It’s a customer who comes back. 🤎

And lately, I’ve been thinking about just how many of you have done exactly that.

Some of you have been ordering from Simply Sourdough since the beginning. You’ve tried the loaves, cookies, scones and seasonal goodies. You’ve come back for your favorites and you’ve taken chances on the new things I’ve dreamed up.

Some of you have told your friends about us. Shared our posts. Sent someone our way. Stopped by the farmers market. Ordered for your family. Bought a loaf as a gift.

And some of you simply keep coming back.

I want you to know that I notice.

When you’re running a small business, especially one that is quite literally built in your kitchen, every order means something.

Behind every loaf is mixing, folding, fermenting, shaping, baking, cooling, packaging and a whole lot of planning. Behind every menu is a million little decisions about ingredients, quantities, timing and what I can realistically pull off while also being a mom and keeping up with everything else life throws at us.

But the part that makes it all worth it?

You.

The messages that say, “This was so good.”

The customer who tells me their kids loved the bread.

The person who orders the same cookies every single time.

The customer who says, “I’ll take two loaves this week.”

The people who tell their friends, You have to try this.

Those things mean more than you probably realize.

Simply Sourdough Bread Company may be a small business, but it has grown into a little community—and you are the reason for that.

So to everyone who has ever placed an order, shared a post, recommended us, stopped at a market, encouraged me, or simply cheered this little business on:

Thank you. Truly. 🤎

And if you’re new here, welcome! I’m so happy you’re here.

We’re baking good bread, making a few delicious things along the way, supporting local, and figuring it all out one bake day at a time.

Thank you for choosing to support this little family business.

If you found us at the St. Christina Harvest Market yesterday — hi! 👋🏼

It was so great meeting so many new faces, and I know quite a few people were asking how our weekly ordering works.

Our menu opens every Sunday night at 7 PM for the following week’s Friday pickup. 🍞

I’ve found that having a set schedule like this works really well for me. It gives me time to order and prep the ingredients I need, plan out the week’s baking, and stay organized.

And as a busy mom with plenty of other things to juggle, having the week planned ahead makes a BIG difference!

📦 Pickup is every Friday
📍 Evergreen Park, right off 103rd & Homan

So if you’re planning to order for next week, the menu opens Sunday at 7 PM. The ordering link is in the comments! ❤️

What a great day at the St. Christina Harvest Market & 5K! ❤️

A big thank you to everyone who organized the event and included Simply Sourdough Bread Company. It was so nice to be part of such a great day for the school and the community.

We ended up selling out before the event was over, which was awesome! But honestly, my favorite part was getting to see so many familiar customers and meet so many new people.

I loved hearing, “I’m on your porch every week picking up!” and getting to finally put faces to names I know from your orders. And hearing how much you love the sourdough and that the scones are your favorite never gets old. 😊

We’ve been baking for this community for almost 2½ years now, and it has grown into something so much bigger than I ever imagined. I’m so thankful for that and for all of you who continue to support this little bakery.

If you found us today and are new here, we do weekly preorders!

🎃🍂 OKAY… I MAY HAVE A NEW FALL FAVORITE. 🍂🎃

Meet the newest limited-time treat coming to Simply Sourdough Bread Company…

✨ Sourdough Pumpkin Coffee Cake Muffins ✨

Soft, tender pumpkin muffins filled with warm fall spices and topped with an almost ridiculous amount of buttery cinnamon crumble. 🤎

And because apparently the crumble wasn’t enough… I finished them with a sweet maple glaze drizzle. 🍁

So basically:

🎃 Pumpkin
🍂 Warm fall spices
🤎 Buttery cinnamon crumble
🍁 Maple glaze
❤️ Sourdough goodness

They’re cozy, indulgent, and exactly what I want with a cup of coffee on a crisp fall morning. ☕️

And you’ll have your first two chances to get your hands on them:

🍁 THIS SATURDAY, September 12th — I’ll have them fresh at St. Christina’s Harvest Market!

🎃 TONIGHT at 7 PM — they officially make their debut on our weekly menu for Friday, September 18th pickup!

And if you all LOVE them as much as I do… 👀
I just might have to bring them back again this fall! 🍂🤎

Because let’s be honest… pumpkin season is way too short. 🎃

Are you Team Pumpkin? 👇
I have a feeling these might become a new fall favorite around here! 🍁🤎

A little Simply Sourdough story… and one of the many reasons I love our customers. ❤️

When I first started Simply Sourdough, I didn’t know what I didn’t know.

In those early months, there were a few things we made that did contain food dyes. We offered an M&M cookie, and I remember making a Halloween cookie decorated with traditional sprinkles.

Then one day, a local mom messaged me.

She said something along the lines of, “Hey! Did you know Walmart carries dye-free sprinkles? Here’s the brand—check them out!”

She sent me links, information, and basically opened my eyes to something I hadn’t even thought about.

And honestly? I am so grateful she did.

That conversation sent me down a rabbit hole of learning about food dyes, artificial colors, and ingredients—and it made me take a much closer look at what I was using in my own kitchen and what I wanted to offer through my bakery.

From that point forward, we made a conscious decision to do our very best to eliminate artificial colors and unnecessary artificial ingredients from the things we make.

Take these Peanut Butter Cup Sourdough Cookies, for example. 🍪🥜🍫

Those sprinkles are dye-free.

And yes, they’re considerably more expensive than traditional sprinkles.

But we’re paying for naturally colored ingredients rather than synthetic alternatives, and that’s a trade-off we’re willing to make.

Because I want to feel good putting one of our cookies in my own child’s lunchbox.

And I want the local moms who buy from us to feel good doing the same.

I’m not here to tell anyone what they should or shouldn’t feed their family. We all make different choices, and that’s okay.

But when I have the choice between an artificial ingredient and a more natural alternative, I choose the alternative.

And I think one of the sweetest parts of owning a small local bakery is that we’re always learning, too.

Sometimes our customers teach us something.

Sometimes they introduce us to a better ingredient, a better idea, or a better way of doing things.

And this was one of those moments.

So to that mom who took the time to message me all those months ago: thank you. You probably had no idea how much that little message would influence the way I bake today. ❤️

We’re not perfect. We’re always learning. But we’re always trying to do better.

That’s Simply Sourdough.

A little customer appreciation post tonight… because my heart is FULL. 🤍

Yesterday was porch pickup day, and at one point my little bread cabinet was absolutely packed with 50+ orders—brown bags filled with sourdough breads, scones, cookies and all the little bakes that come out of our kitchen each week.

And I just stood there for a minute and thought…

How incredibly lucky am I?

Every single one of those bags was made with so much time, energy, intention, and love. I put a little piece of my heart into every bake, and I am so incredibly grateful to have customers who not only taste it, but see it.

This week, I received some of the sweetest reviews on Hotplate, and they honestly pulled at my heart. We now have 250+ reviews, and I truly cannot wrap my head around that.

When I started Simply Sourdough Bread Company in May of 2024, my hope was pretty simple: I wanted to bake for my neighbors. I wanted to share something I loved, something that meant a lot to our family, and something I felt our community needed—fresh, real bread made with simple ingredients.

I never could have imagined it would grow into this.

So tonight, I just want to say THANK YOU.

Thank you to every person who has placed an order.

Thank you to those who come back week after week and fill their brown bags with bread and bakes.

Thank you to everyone who has left a review, shared a post, tagged a friend, commented, recommended us to someone, or simply stopped by the farmers market to say hello.

Thank you to those who have been here since the very beginning… and to those who just found us.

Every order matters. Every review matters. Every share matters. Every time you show up on our porch, you are supporting a dream that started in our kitchen.

And I hope you know just how much that means to me.

More than words can really express. 🤍🌻

From our kitchen to your table, thank you for continuing to let me bake for you.

I am so, so grateful for this little bakery and the incredible community that has grown around it.

With a very full heart,
Brooke
