You know those days where your brain is just… elsewhere? 😂

I was making two loaves today:
🥒 A protein-packed zucchini bread for a taste test.
🍞 My regular zucchini bread as the control.

The goal? See if the protein version could pass the taste test.

Everything was going according to plan…

Until I confidently grabbed the cumin instead of the cinnamon…

…for the regular loaf. 🤦🏻‍♀️

The protein loaf? Perfect.

The one that was supposed to be my comparison? Straight into the trash before it even made it to the oven.

So today’s lesson:
✔️ Protein powder wasn’t the problem.
❌ I was. 😂

Recipe testing keeps me humble.

✨ One of my favorite orders yet.

I baked 15 boxes of sourdough lemon blueberry muffins for a local realtor to gift to her clients. 💛

It got me thinking... baked goods make such a meaningful gift.

Instead of another candle or gift card, imagine surprising someone with something homemade and delicious.

They're perfect for:
• 🏡 Client closing gifts
• 🌸 Hostess gifts
• 🎂 Birthdays
• 👶 New baby welcomes
• ❤️ Thinking of you gifts
• 🙏 Thank you gifts
• 🎄 Holiday gifts
• 🎉 Teacher or coach appreciation
• 👯‍♀️ Just because

If you ever need gifts for a group—or even just one special person—I would love to help create something memorable.

There's something about receiving fresh baked goods that just feels extra thoughtful.

Have an occasion coming up? Send me a message and let's make it special. 🤍

I love hearing your messages, but this one made my whole week.

My son came home from camp and told me a 12 year old he knows was talking about how much he loved my bread.

If you’ve ever met a middle school boy, you know they don’t hand out compliments just to be nice. 😂

I’ll be riding this high for a while.

There are easier ways to make snack bars.

Buying them is definitely one of them. 😅

But I love making these from scratch. From mixing the dough to layering the jam to baking them until they’re perfectly golden. These will always be a staple in my house.

Because I believe homemade just tastes better.

❤️ Freshly baked every week at A Better Bite.

This is what my bread actually looks like in our house

PB&Js, turkey sandwiches, cinnamon toast, quick breakfasts…
nothing fancy, just everyday life

I started baking because I wanted something better for my kids. Real ingredients, no preservatives, no shortcuts

Now it’s the bread we use for everything
and I get to share it with other local families too 🤍

If you’ve been looking for a better everyday bread, this is it

Said yes to baking cookies for my son’s baseball golf tournament fundraiser… and somehow that turned into 150 cookies in my kitchen 🤍

Every single one made from scratch with the same ingredients I use for my own family—no shortcuts, no mixes, just real food.

These boys are working so hard this season and it means a lot to be able to support them in a small way ⚾️

If you’ve ever ordered, shared, or supported my little baking business… it truly makes things like this possible.

Orders open weekly (Mon–Tues)

This started in my kitchen for my family 6 years ago

I was just trying to make better bread with real ingredients and no shortcuts

It kind of spiraled from there… and I honestly don’t remember the last time we bought bread

Now I get to share it with other local families too 🤍

You don’t need more options.
You need better ones.

Every bag on this porch is:
✔️ slow fermented
✔️ made from scratch
✔️ something I’d feed my own kids

And every pickup… it sells out faster than I expect.

If you’ve been thinking about ordering, this is your sign.
