I haven’t always baked with Fresh Milled Flour recipes…
I’m Krista Bailey, and I’m here to show you that baking with fresh-milled flour is both healthy and simple. My journey started in professional pastry kitchens, but it evolved when I discovered the incredible flavor of home-milled grains. Now, I spend my time at Bailey Basics developing tested recipes that help home bakers master everything from soft sandwich bread to high-protein flatbreads.
Baking with fresh flour that utilizes the grain in its entirety was never on my radar when I owned a commercial bakery. With my background as a professional pastry chef, I know what light fluffy flavors we have grown accustomed to as a society and have found ways to have the most success with whole grain flour.
When it comes to recipe creation, I am first and foremost a busy mom of 3 kids with a Fire fighter husband who works outside the home for long hours. I do not have time to create complicated dishes that leave me in the kitchen all day every day.
If you want to hear more about my journey to milling my own flour at home, HERE is the whole story!
