Turmeric Cinnamon Raisin Sourdough Bread
Meet Amber—a golden sourdough beauty infused with turmeric, cinnamon, and juicy raisins. She’s warm, a little spicy, and absolutely delicious. And just look at the color! One of my favorite things about making sourdough is naming my loaves (hence, Amber). I start with my go-to sourdough base loaf (Natalie), then add a bit of turmeric to the water, fold in raisins during stretch and folds, laminate with a sprinkle of cinnamon before shaping & cold fermenting overnight.
