Dropped the kids at school? Come and spend the morning learning how to make fresh, wholesome bread at home without complicated recipes, special equipment or hours in the kitchen.

Join Denise for a relaxed, hands-on two-hour workshop where you’ll make three simple and versatile breads: seeded oat bread, focaccia and flatbread.

This workshop is all about making homemade bread fit into real life. You’ll learn how to handle and shape different doughs, understand proving times, build confidence with simple breadmaking techniques, and know what to do when your dough does not quite go to plan.

Denise will guide you through practical techniques you can use again and again at home, with plenty of time for questions, hands-on practice and tasting along the way.
