What’s your favorite fall breakfast?

Could it possibly be fresh, homemade, warm sourdough bread, straight out of the oven, salubriously slathered in warm butter and a touch of sea salt? Doesn’t that sound amazing …?
But then, what if we added just an essence of the season with some pumpkin maple butter spread?
Just a hint – not too sweet – not too spicy – just an “essence” of fall in each bite.

You’re welcome.
You’ll be eating this Pumpkin Maple Sourdough Bread for every breakfast, snack, and sweet all season long! 🍁🍂🧡🎃🍞
