Savory Baking: Tarts and Breads - In Person

A hands-on in-person cooking class. Alongside the baked goods, a hearty snack of cheeses, veggies and dips, and a seasonal salad will be served with wine and beer. This class is limited to 12 students. Review our registration and cancellation policies here. Masks are welcome.

While everyone loves an indulgent sweet pastry or tart, sometimes you need something a little more savory for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack. In this class, we'll make a savory tart with the flakiest dough, gluten-free crackers, a savory quick bread and a pull-apart bread. You'll learn how to adjust these recipes to suit your tastes and what ingredients you happen to have on hand. Additionally, you’ll learn how to convert a sweet recipe into a savory one!
