A new friend and her sweet treats!

 

A few weeks ago, I went to my neighbors’ home Bible study, where I met some lovely new friends including Nikki, shown here, and her husband, Jason. She shared what is quite possibly some of the best cinnamon rolls I’ve ever eaten, and it turned out she has started her own bakery, Almond Branch Bakery, so I had to visit her when I learned she would be at the Sharpsburg Market over the weekend.

I thought her treats were so elegantly displayed, and I bought a mini loaf of some divine chocolate chip banana bread, part of which served as my breakfast as I was headed out to an estate sale.
 

And the treat I bought to take home? A half loaf of her Jalapeño Cheddar artisan sourdough. Y’all, this is so good! Nikki is intentionally growing her business slowly and mostly by word of mouth, but based on the list of her offerings I came home with (including gluten-free offerings), I plan to be ordering from her for a while to come, especially for tea parties where I hope to show off her fancy breads. If you’re local and see Almond Branch Bakery set up anywhere, be sure to check it out!
