Adding tomatoes to the sweet baked goods is nothing new. Think about zucchini, sweet potato and pumpkin in the baked goods that you have been seeing and enjoying. As you probably know, tomatoes are botanically a fruit and they are sweet and juicy. So using tomatoes in chocoalte cakes or muffins is just as naturally as using bananas and carrots in cakes. Bakers having been using tomatoes for at least the past 50 years to enrich the flavour of baked goods and help the texture stay soft for longer. This chocolate loaf cake is rich with melted chocolate, butter, olive oil, eggs and cocoa powder, using tomato paste and juice to enhance the flavour and texture. If a loaf doesn't feel like a cake to you, feel free to use a muffin pan, or a round cake pan. While the coffee glaze is not absolutely necessary, but the intense and robust flavour of coffee pairs perfectly with dark chocolate.

A rich, buttery, moist mirabelle (or any fruit) cake, adapted from here and here, topped with a crisp caramel-almond Florentine-like topping, which was inspired by a popular German Bienenstich, is simply too good to miss in life - great for afternoon tea or morning coffee. I used mirabelles, but any other seasonal fruit would be fantastic too.

Blackberry Spelt Muffins with Sourdough Discard

These blackberry loaded sourdough discard muffins with a combination of white and whole spelt flour are a great way to put excess starter to work. They are excellent for a mid-morning treat or a snack on the go or even as a dessert served with vanilla ice cream. Use fresh or frozen blackberries, or go foraging to find some in the summer months. The use of rye sourdough discard adds a very pleasant tangy flavour and moisture that helps these wholesome muffins stay moist and fresh for longer. I baked these muffins in a jumbo 6-cup muffin pan. If you want to use a standard-sized 12-cup muffin pan, adjust the baking time accordingly.

Sourdough Bread with Blackberry Rosemary Pomace

Baked with Blackberry Rosemary PomaceBaked with leftover pulp from juicing

A pomace is the pulpy remains after fruit (or vegetable) has been crushed in order to extract its juice or oil. It contains skins, pulp, seeds and stems of the fruit. It's a cheap source of dietary fibers, antioxidants, pectin and other nutrients. Pomace can be turned into the distilled products, used to make animal feed, recycled as mulch, processed to make grapeseed oil and flour.
In this recipe I am incoperating blackberry and rosemary residues from making fruit curd into the sourdough bread. The add of pomace adds more freshness, fruitiness, depth and colour to the bread. Last but not least nothing is wasted. You can bake the bread into a batard, boule or a regular sandwich loaf. Although pomace is absolutely compostable and perfectly okay inside a composting bin, it's still better if it ends up on the plate.
