Best. Snickerdoodles. Ever.
Sourdough is the healthiest bread for you, so get the best. I discovered Lotus Flour at the Farmers' Market when the cookies caught my eye-- the Brown Butter Sourdough Snickerdoodles. I thought that sourdough was an interesting base for a cookie, so I thought I would give it a try. These are amazing!
Snickerdoodles aren't my favorite cookie, I'm a chocolate chip cookie kind of girl, but Lotus Flour definitely converted me. The best thing about these cookies is that they aren't too sweet-- you get the cinnamon, rather than the sweetness of the cookie base. The sourdough base is the perfect balance. And oh so chewy...
The Lotus Flour owner/baker is incredibly nice! There were times when there were certain sourdough breads that weren't available that week, where she let me know it was alright to make a request. I like exploring, so I usually wait for the next market to see what surprises await. Favorites at our house: the Three Cheese, the Parmesan Herb, and the Sea Salt Focaccia.
If you're going to get sourdough, get the best, and that is Lotus Flour. We're looking forward to the new Farmers' Market season, or finding Lotus Flour somewhere before then. read more
