Whole Wheat Sourdough Class

Saturday, February 7, 2026 | 10:00AM - 4:00PM (Includes Lunch)

$299.00 Per Station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos- see below for more details)

Want to take your sourdough baking to a new level? Join Brian Knowles as he teaches you how to successfully use whole wheat flour in your sourdough baking. 

You’ll begin the day by making the dough for a Whole Wheat Sourdough Boule. This loaf is 90% (ish) whole wheat, it could be 100% if you make it with a whole wheat sourdough starter. This is not the same as your regular white sourdough loaf, this loaf has a tight crumb and a rich nutty flavor. 

Sourdough Discard Thin Wheat Crackers are similar to the ones you buy in the yellow box at the store. The dough for these crackers is easy to work with, no mixer needed. These are great to keep around for satisfying those salty cravings and they look impressive on a cheeseboard for when company stops by unexpectedly. The dough for these crackers can be made a few days ahead, so that you can always have fresh crackers at a moments notice.

Sourdough Discard Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls are irresistibly soft, tender, and can be made entirely from 100 percent whole wheat flour (if whole wheat sourdough starter discard is used). Adding yeast speeds up the baking process and are so quick and delicious you will forget other rolls exist. 

Sourdough Whole Wheat Breakfast Cookies are a great way to start your day with a cup of coffee or tea. They are full of good for you ingredients! Olive oil, bananas, walnuts and sourdough starter (or discard).These cookies are very flexible. They can be made with discard or for a fluffier cookie, use active sourdough starter. The cookie dough can be made the day before and fermented overnight in the fridge.

So come spend the day with Brian and overcome your fears of baking with whole wheat flour. Your body will thank you for all the extra nutrients.

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo types:

YES: Couples (live in the same household)

YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)

*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. (Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!)

We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.

Please wear comfortable shoes (stools will be provided) and have long hair tied back. For the comfort of all our students and staff, we ask that you refrain from wearing strong perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.
