When you're checking out the breakfast options at your local bakery or coffee shop, scones are a given. Somewhere between biscuit and muffin — with a delicately crusty exterior, and tender, light crumb within — scones have become part of the morning ritual for many: grab your travel mug and a scone, and hit the road. Wedge-shaped or round, filled with chocolate, or even savory (bacon-cheddar, anyone?), scones are surprisingly simple to make — and irresistible.

Just when you thought you didn't need another chocolate chip cookie, you do.

You can't beat this combo of tender cake, gooey cinnamon ripple, and buttery crumb topping.

You know the chewy texture and distinctive "street vendor pretzel" flavor you get in pretzels bought hot from a pushcart in the city? These bite-sized pretzels, in either a sweet or classic salty version, are a wonderful made-at-home take on those metro-style treats.

With their mild tang, sourdough pancakes are a tasty change from your usual breakfast short stack. You might worry that their flavor will be strong enough to clash with syrup or your other favorite toppings, but no worries: pancakes made with sourdough starter simply taste a bit richer and more nuanced than the norm. And sourdough waffles? They're perfect for either a drizzle of maple or as the base for savory toppings like fried chicken.

These cookies put the flavor of strawberry shortcakes into a portable option for lunchboxes and picnics. Instead of cream biscuits, there are soft and tender cookies (still made with cream!), and instead of fresh fruit, there's a bright filling made from freeze-dried strawberries. The look is complete with a sprinkling of sparkling sugar.

Every pantry should have a bag of all-purpose flour. Our organic version works in any recipe calling for "flour" or "all-purpose flour," delivering consistent results every time.

These big, palm-sized biscuits are perfect for a breakfast sandwich. Their sourdough tang pairs nicely with egg, ham, sausage, or whatever you choose to stuff them with. Better yet — the recipe uses your "discard" sourdough, the extra starter you might otherwise throw away during the feeding process.

Did you ever bake something, taste it, and say, “Wow, this tastes just like [your favorite store-bought treat].”

Challah is shaped in various braids and coils, and often gilded with a sprinkle of poppy seeds. This version calls for oil to keep it kosher with a meat-based meal. Though not quite as rich, it's similar to French brioche; and, like brioche, it makes wonderful toast and French toast.
