Maple Oat Long-Fermented Loaf

Hearty oats • Touch of maple • Deep flavour

Slow fermentation creates the flavour, texture, and keeping quality that makes this Maple Oat artisan-style loaf so special. We give the dough time to fully develop before baking, producing a beautifully balanced loaf with a crisp, rustic crust and a soft, satisfying crumb.

Rolled oats and pure maple syrup add a gentle sweetness and hearty character without overpowering the flavour of the bread. The outside is finished with an extra layer of oats, giving the loaf its rustic appearance and a little more texture in every slice.

Unlike sourdough, our Long-Fermented Loaf has no tanginess—just the comforting taste of well-made bread with subtle complexity and a clean finish. The Maple Oat version is especially lovely toasted, where the warmth brings out the maple and the nutty flavour of the oats.

Enjoy it on its own, spread with your favourite butter or jam, alongside breakfast, or as a slightly heartier everyday loaf. It’s just as comfortable beside something savoury as it is with something sweet.

We bake each loaf fresh in small batches. Every loaf weighs approximately 700g after baking and is sold whole and unsliced to preserve its freshness.

Storage & Freezing: This Maple Oat long-fermented loaf freezes beautifully. Thaw it overnight in the refrigerator. To bring back that fresh-baked texture and crisp crust, warm it in a preheated 400°F oven for 5–10 minutes. If you’re using an air fryer oven, bake for up to 5 minutes before slicing.

Approximate weight: 700g baked loaf
