    About

    Hi, I'm Ashley!

    Welcome to my blog, Everyday Homemade! I’m so glad you’re here.

    Whether you're an experienced sourdough baker or just getting started, I’m excited to share delicious, fun, and easy sourdough recipes with you.

    My Blog Is For You If...

    Ever wondered what to do with all that sourdough discard or felt overwhelmed by the idea of baking your first loaf of sourdough bread? If so, you're in the right place!

    Here on my blog, you’ll find:

    • Simple, beginner-friendly sourdough recipes that are easy to follow and don’t require hard-to-find ingredients.
    • Creative ways to use sourdough discard, because we all have too much of it! From crackers to granola bars, I’ve got you covered.
    • Scratch-made recipes that pair with sourdough, like homemade marinara for sourdough pasta or cranberry jam for sourdough biscuits.

    My goal is to help you feel confident and excited about baking with sourdough, no matter your skill level. If that sounds like what you’re looking for, my blog is perfect for you.

    A Little About Me...

    I’m Ashley, a Registered Dietitian turned sourdough enthusiast and food blogger. I earned my degree in Food and Nutrition in 2018, and now I live in rural Massachusetts with my fiancé, two cats (Holland and Maeve), and a growing flock of backyard chickens.

    As a homebody at heart, food blogging is the perfect fit. It lets me connect with others through recipes, emails, and social media - all from the comfort of home.

    When I’m not developing recipes for the blog, you’ll find me tending my garden in the summer, squeezing in a workout in my tiny home gym, or sipping a big cup of coffee with my favorite breakfast – overnight oats.

    And because balance is key, I always end the the day with a piece of chocolate as a treat (shoutout to my fellow chocolate lovers!).

    My love for baking goes way back to childhood, when I’d help my dad make apple pie every Thanksgiving. But my sourdough baking journey began a few years ago with lots of flat, failed loaves. After plenty of trial and error, I finally baked my first successful sourdough bread, and I’ve been hooked ever since.

    Now, I bake almost daily and love finding fun, creative ways to use up sourdough discard (because we all have way too much of it, right?).

    Before I became a full-time blogger, I worked as a healthcare professional. I started this blog as a creative outlet during the pandemic to help relieve stress.

    What began as a general scratch-cooking blog quickly evolved into a niche space for sourdough recipes when my sourdough discard pizza dough went viral on Pinterest. It’s still my most popular recipe today, along with other fan favorites like sourdough cheese crackers, brownies, and granola bars.

    As a Registered Dietitian and self-proclaimed foodie, I use my expertise to create simple, approachable sourdough recipes just for you. Whether you’re baking your first sourdough loaf or looking for creative ways to use excess discard, I’m here to make it fun and easy.

    Sourdough Focaccia Pizza

    Sourdough Discard Biscuits

    These biscuits are the perfect way to use up extra discard, and they come out light and buttery every time. Easy, quick, and always a crowd-pleaser!

    Three sourdough discard biscuits stacked in a triangle shape on top of a wooden pizza peel. Out of focus in the background is a skillet of biscuits and a small glass jar of butter.

    These are so easy to make and turned out really good!

    Sourdough Garlic Knots

    Perfect for parties or a cozy night in. These garlic knots are soft, savory, and always disappear fast when shared with friends.

    Sourdough garlic knots garnished with grated parmesan cheese on a small plate.

    You guys, I made these for a friends dinner and they were instantly all gone. Soo good! Easy recipe too!
