Dutch Oven Baking

2023—Babette—1.jpg

You've heard about baking bread in a dutch oven - the crispy crust, the bakery-quality results - but where do you even start?

 

This relaxed Sunday afternoon is designed for anyone curious about this simple, transformative method.


The Experience


Spend a Sunday afternoon with Babette, wrapping up the weekend with a glass of wine, warm bread, and hands-on learning.

 

Using prepared dough made with local flour, you'll learn to score and bake a beautiful artisan loaf in a dutch oven (no fancy equipment, no intimidation, just the fundamentals that work.


This session is beginner-friendly and deliberately relaxed. You'll understand why a dutch oven creates bakery-quality crust, what to look for when buying one, and how to use it with confidence.

While your loaf bakes and fills the studio with that unmistakable smell, we'll uncork the wine and talk bread.


What You'll Learn

 

  • Why a dutch oven produces superior crust and crumb

  • Types of dutch ovens and what to buy (or skip)

  • The purpose of scoring your loaves

  • How steam generation transforms your bread

  • How to tell when your bread is perfectly baked


You'll leave with a golden, crackling loaf you baked and scored yourself - and the knowledge to do it again and again.
