About Baker in a Beanie

I have been baking my own bread ever since moving to Somerset nearly 20 years ago. First in a bread machine and, when that blew up, by hand. I quickly found a real passion for the art of baking, having a go at everything from a traditional farmhouse loaf to Irish soda bread. Then, in May 2023, when my livelihood disappeared overnight with the emergence of AI in the writing world, I turned to my hobby and set up Baker in a Beanie.

The Breads

Using only the finest ancient grains, and with nothing but organic ingredients, the breads on offer are: The Rustic, a wonderful country loaf made with light spelt and einkorn; The Farmhouse, a delicious tinned loaf made with light spelt and khorasan; The Scandi, a mouthwatering dark rye made with molasses, and The Irish, a traditional yeast-free soda bread made with light spelt and emmer and a vegan buttermilk. I also make Irish soda bread rolls and small loaves of the Rustic, the Scandi, and the Farmhouse. And now I have Baguettes available, too, wonderful French-style loaves but with a soft-crust, made with 100% spelt.
