When you think of the holidays, what types of food quickly come up in your mind? I bet cranberries are just one of the many traditional holiday flavors. Me too. That’s why when I was asked to participate in the Hodgson Mill #HaveAGrainHoliday challenge, I was all over it.
They sent me a variety of flours to try out. One was a 5 lb. bag of their White Whole Wheat Flour.
I have been trying to figure what I can share with you that depicts the holidays as best as I can, using their whole wheat flour. It’s one of the best white whole wheat flours I have come across.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
