The Sourdough Baker's Christmas gift guide!

Are you a sourdough baker needing ideas for your Christmas wishlist, or know a sourdough baker whom you need to buy a gift for? This list is full of items that ANYONE who bakes amazing bread will LOVE! Here are my top ten picks.

This guide includes affiliate links which give me commission at no extra cost to you.



#1 Beginners Sourdough Kit

This kit from Amazon is one I have myself and it's the best kit I've found if you're on a budget. It includes a banneton, bench scraper, dough hook, lame, and bowl scraper. A great gift for someone who's looking to get started!




#2 LODGE Dutch Oven

LODGE is my favorite brand of Dutch Ovens. They are sturdy, reliable, and beautiful pots, without the price tag of a Le Creuset. Every sourdough baker needs one, and if they have one they'll be thankful for an extra!




#3 Barlow & Co. Woodwork

This small business is one of my favorites. They handmake all their products in their carpentry shop and have the sourdough baker at the heart of it all. I particularly love the bow knife and dough hook and will be gifting some to the bread friends in my life. You can use code SARAH10 for 10% off your entire order.



#4 DOAP

Every baker gets sick of dough hands and wrecked sponges from said dough, including myself. I stumbled upon this product not too long ago and purchased it to see if it lived up to the hype. They say they're the original 'dough soap' for bakers, but there's no actual soap involved.

After using it every day for 2 months, I can now say it's pretty incredible. 10/10. You can use code SARAH for 15% off your entire purchase!


#5 Artisan Sourdough Made Simple

I've tried many sourdough cookbooks and this is by far my favorite. It's how I learned how to make all different types of bread and I constantly use it as a reference. Perfect for both beginner and intermediate bakers!


#6 The Bread Mat

This reusable mat is perfect if you're sick of wasting parchment paper, and it seems to stop the bottoms of loaves from burning as well. I had first bought a cheap silicon sling from amazon and then bought The Bread Mat as a comparison... and this is SO much better (trust me). You can use code SARAH10 for 10% off your purchase.


#7 Jar & Bowl Covers

These handmade jar and bowl covers are uniquely printed, reversible (so you get two patterns to choose from), 100% cotton, and handmade by my mum-in-law @joyinquilting :) treat yourself or a loved one to these lovely covers.



#8 Farmhouse Apron

This is just a super sweet, simple apron. It's less than $20 and comes in a few different colors. LOVE!


#9 Wooden Spatula Set

Not only cute but also practical. These are perfect for stirring your sourdough starter and are actually some of the only kitchen utensils I use now.



#10 NutriMill Grain Mill

Every bread baker dreams of milling their own grains. It is what sets my loaves apart from other local bakeries. The fresh-milled flour is not only packed full of nutrients, it gives a delicious depth of flavor. This grain mill is the one I have and it performs fantastically (and is currently on supersale). If it's not on your wish list, it should be.




BONUS: Lanon Gloves

I had to throw Lanon Gloves into the mix. I have been using these heat-resistant gloves for a year now and don't know what I would do without them. They are essential to my baking journey! You can use code Sarah15 for 15% off your purchase.




COMING SOON: SOURDOUGH FOR BEGINNERS

Keep an eye out for my new beginner's sourdough guide! I am almost finished writing it, and I hope to release it before Christmas. It will be sold as a bundle with some of my very own sourdough starter and will teach you how to make beautiful sourdough bread at home. 2024 is your year to make GOOD bread! 🥖
