Pull up a stool. Let's bake together.
I still remember the year I quit sourdough.
Seven years, to be exact. Seven years of starters that bubbled one day and looked lifeless the next, loaves that came out flat and gummy, and a growing pile of wasted flour and dashed hope.
I told myself I just wasn't a "sourdough person."
I was wrong. I just didn't have anyone sitting next to me showing me what I was missing.
That's the whole reason this course exists. Not because I wanted to sell you a video series, but because I know exactly what it feels like to stand in your kitchen, flour on your hands, wondering if you're the problem. I see gluten-free bakers trying recipe after recipe and slowly losing hope, and it breaks my heart. A recipe alone was never going to be enough. You deserve someone walking with you, not a list of ingredients and a prayer.
Does this sound familiar?
- Your starter never seems "active enough," and every feeding schedule you try just adds to the confusion.
- You think sourdough is for experienced bakers, and you're not sure you qualify.
- Your dough looks nothing like the tutorials, and your loaves come out dense, flat, or gummy.
- Every bake turns out different, and a warm afternoon or a cold morning throws the whole thing off.
- You're nervous to waste one more bag of expensive flour.
- The bread is safe, but your family quietly reaches for something else.
If you nodded at even one of these, come sit down. None of it means you're bad at this. It means no one has shown you how gluten-free sourdough actually works. I've got you.
This isn't a class. It's a seat at my counter.
If you came to my house, I'd hand you a cup of coffee, pull my starter out from under the towel, and let you watch it bubble. I'd show you what "ready" actually looks like. When your dough looked off, I'd lean over your shoulder and tell you what to fix right then, not three chapters later.
That's what I built: eight modules that walk beside you the way I would in my own kitchen. Patient, honest, and a little like your funniest, most understanding friend, who happens to have spent fifteen years figuring out gluten-free, allergen-free baking so you don't have to.
Here's why another recipe might not solve the problem
A recipe can tell you what to add.
But when your starter isn't ready, your kitchen is colder than usual, or your dough looks different, you need to understand what to do next.
And if you're following wheat-based sourdough advice, you may be looking for things gluten-free bread simply won't do.
Inside this course, we connect the starter, dough, environment, shaping, baking, and troubleshooting. You'll learn how those pieces affect one another, so each bake gives you something to learn from.
Your complete eight-lesson path to delicious, gluten free sourdough
Each lesson includes video instruction, with written course material to support your learning.

What you'll actually walk away with
I can't promise every loaf will be perfect. Sourdough is alive. Your flour, water, starter, timing, and weather all play a part, and anyone who guarantees a flawless bake every time isn't being honest with you.
What I can promise is that you'll understand what you're doing. The next time a loaf disappoints you, you won't be stuck asking, Was my starter ready? Did it rise long enough? Did I slice it too soon? You'll know, and you'll know what to change next time.
By the end, you'll have:
- A healthy starter you know how to read and care for
- Confidence from mixing to shaping to baking, instead of anxiety
- The skills to troubleshoot your own loaf instead of starting over
- A repeatable process for consistent results, bake after bake
- Sourdough as a regular, joyful part of your kitchen, not a stressful once-a-year experiment
Hear it from paste bakers:
"I had never made anything with sourdough before, let alone work with a starter. I was intimidated at first knowing starters were picky and they take a lot of work. Even with all of the instructions written out clearly, it was slightly overwhelming. Luckily, it was super easy!! And stress free!! The instructions I received from Rustic Scoop™ had a great amount of detail and was very explanatory! I never knew sourdough needed so much TLC! If anyone is looking to give sourdough a try, I would highly recommend starting with Rustic Scoop™! They have really put the time into making sourdough easy and fun!"
Kim R.
"At first I was intimidated because it looked like so many steps. But once you get started you realize how easy it actually is. It feels empowering to be able to create sourdough so easily and it's so delicious. My whole family love it and they're not even gluten-free!"
Mallory N.
"I LOVED IT! Tastes so yummy... Thank you so so much! And for ALL your help. I want to cry from relief and excitement! I can't wait to make more!... I'm mad I put the starter in my fridge already, I've eaten half of the loaf already and so I need to make more."
Anna H.
"If you're gluten-free, you KNOW how much you miss real homemade bread! I honestly never thought I'd be making sourdough again after going gluten-free, but here I am! Thanks to Rustic Scoop's gluten-free sourdough course and starter, I'm making beautiful homemade loaves again! There's something so special about getting back something you thought you had to give up forever. So grateful to Rustic Scoop for making this possible!

How long until my first real loaf?
Most people are pulling a loaf they're proud of within a week, depending on how your starter comes along. I'll be with you the whole way.
What if I get stuck?
That's the entire point of this course. Troubleshooting is baked in (pun very much intended). If you finish a module and still have a question, email, text, or call us. A real person answers, usually me.

Yes. Once you're in, you have it for good. Come back to any module, any time, and any course updates are included.
Come bake with me
I didn’t set out to become a baker, and I definitely didn’t set out to teach sourdough. I set out to feed my family safely, and I stumbled, failed, quit for seven years, and eventually figured it out anyway.
If you’ve been standing at your counter feeling like sourdough just isn’t for you — I promise, it is. You just haven’t had someone sit down next to you yet.
And once you’re in, you’re not on your own between modules. Get stuck on module 3 at 9pm on a Tuesday? Email us, text us, call us. We’ll help you work through it — for real, not just a form letter buried in a help center.
Pull up a stool. Let’s bake.
