Whole Grain Bread with Chef Alex Peña

Whole Grain Bread Class

Thursday, July 31, 2025 | 6:00PM - 8:30PM

$169.00 Per Station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos- see below for more details)

Join Guest Chef Alex Peña of Baking Evolution for a hands-on class where we’ll explore the goodness of whole grains in baking! We’ll use a whole wheat dough that’s infused with cracked wheat, giving it extra texture and flavor. In this class, you’ll learn how to make traditional Mexican teleras and savory, stuffed bolillos.

What you’ll make:

Teleras: These are soft, slightly sweet Mexican sandwich rolls with a distinctive shape. Perfect for making sandwiches, teleras are an everyday favorite in Mexico and are a great way to enjoy whole grain baking in a classic form.

Cream Cheese & Jalapeño Bolillos: These whole wheat bolillos are stuffed with a creamy and spicy filling of cream cheese and jalapeños, offering a delicious twist on a traditional roll.

Throughout the class, we’ll also talk about the difference between whole wheat and whole grain, and we’ll take a closer look at the parts of the wheat berry that make whole grain flour so nutritious. By the end of the class, you’ll have a better understanding of whole grains and how to use them in baking, plus two tasty recipes to enjoy at home!

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

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.

This is a full-day class, 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 perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.

Buttermilk Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches

Sunday, August 10, 2025 | 10:00AM - 12:30PM

$169.00 Per Station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos- see below for more details)

Who doesn’t love a warm buttermilk biscuit topped with eggs, meat and cheese in the middle? Are mornings crazy in your house trying to get everyone out the door? Have no fear, Brian Knowles will teach you how to make mornings easier and tastier with his Buttermilk Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches that can go from freezer to the table in two minutes. 

Brian will teach you how to make light and flaky buttermilk biscuits two ways. You’ll start your biscuit journey by making a savory biscuit for your breakfast sandwiches. Once they are cool you’ll build your biscuit sandwiches with your choice of breakfast meats and cheeses. You’ll have the opportunity to enjoy one of your buttermilk biscuits before he shows you how to wrap them up for storing in the freezer and he’ll even share his tips on heating them up in the microwave.

Don’t worry about having to fry up a bunch of eggs individually because Brian will show his time saving secret of baking scrambled eggs in a sheet pan. You’ll cut your eggs using the same cutter as your biscuits, so you’ll get egg and biscuit in every bite!

While your savory biscuits are in the oven, Brian will teach you how to turn the same buttermilk biscuit recipe into a sweet one with a few tweaks to the recipe. There is no better way to end the class than by enjoying  the fruits of your labor by taking one of your sweet biscuits and topping it with macerated strawberries and a rich Chantilly cream. 

You’ll be the hero when you arrive home with buttermilk biscuit breakfast sandwiches AND be able to quickly pull together fresh Strawberry Shortcake for dessert that evening.

My Sourdough Discard Adventure

Saturday, August 16, 2025 | 10:00AM - 4:00PM

$249.00 Per Station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos- see below for more details)

Spend the day with Brian Knowles as he takes you on a journey discovering sweeet and savory adventures for you sourdough discard.

We’ll start the day by making a discard version of that ever so popular Lemon Blueberry Loaf Cake found at a popular membership warehouse store. This loaf cake is so moist and tender that very bite just melts in your mouth. Each slice is loaded with fresh blueberries and the batter is made with the zest and juice of fresh lemons (no artificial flavors here)! Topped with a sweet layer of crumble and a drizzle of lemon icing, this blueberry loaf is just as tasty (if not more) as it looks.

Next up Brian will teach how to make the Quick Sourdough Discard Rolls so many of you have enjoyed with soup at some recent all day classes. These quick easy and tasty rolls are perfect for holidays and can be switched up by topping with flaky salt, sesame or poppy seeds. These rolls only need to rise once so are great for a last minute roll for dinner. 

While our rolls are rising we will then make our Sourdough Discard Goldfish Cracker dough. These crackers come together quickly in a food processor and then chilled for a bit. They are so good that even Brians dogs gobble them up. These crackers never last long, so you’ll be making these quite often. Once the dough is made you can store it in your fridge for up to a week and easily bake off a batch when the craving strikes. We’ll bake these off when we have time and hopefully there will be some leftover for you to take home. 

We’ll end the day making Sourdough Discard Cosmic Brownies. These rich and fudgy brownies topped with a chocolate icing and sprinkles of your choice will bring you right back to your childhood.  What makes these brownies unique is that the icing is made with hot water and spread on the just out of the oven brownies and topped with your choice of sprinkles. We like them best chilled but wouldn’t turn down one down if it wasn’t. 

As this is a Chef Night/Date Night, you are welcome to BYOB (please drink responsibly!)

Q: What kind of bagel can fly? A: A plain bagel.

I can hear you groaning from here. Book quick, before I strike again.

You’re still here? Well, you asked for it…

Q: Why do seagulls fly over the sea? A: If they flew over the bay, they’d be bagels.

Come and create a variety of delicious bagels in this hands-on class. The dough will already be made and ready for you to learn to shape, boil and bake. (So you won’t have to do all the pesky waiting around for rising times.) Top your beauties with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, sea salt, everything mix, or leave them free to fly away. Mary Storey will guide you through the process from start to finish, and demonstrate the dough process so you can recreate them at home. Plus you’ll get to make a sweet or savory cream cheese spread to take home too!

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* Types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

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 people 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.

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 too!

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 perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.
