Morning Baker: Recipes and Rituals for Breakfast and Beyond

Known for her California bakery, Friends & Family, Roxana Jullapat has long advocated for the versatility and flavour of whole grains. Her debut cookbook, Mother Grains, won fans by celebrating flours such as einkorn, rye, corn and buckwheat in approachable, delicious and satisfying ways. Her new collection invites readers to get more adventurous with baking, featuring the tools and insights she's learned from more than a decade of baking before the sun rises. Start with a hearty Banana-Date Muffin or dive into decadent doughnuts with a Maple-Brown Butter Glaze. Then, savour Dark Rye Rolls or Swiss Chard, Feta and Egg Pide. Whole grains transform traditional recipes-from breakfast pancakes and flaky croissants to quiches, scones and sourdough breads-adding complexity and depth. Jullapat's rituals and thoughtful guidance ensure bakers understand the "why" behind every step. Morning Baker suits all skill levels, so anyone can be a morning baker, at whatever hour they please.
