Sourdough

In addition to our own bakes, we’re excited to feature items from local baker Isabella D’Aurizio. Her sourdough is delicious with some homemade pimento cheese and a slice of fresh tomato!

Cranberry Orange Scones

Blending our favorite ingredients from a few recipes, these scones use all-purpose flour, heavy cream, and orange peel zest & juice. Fresh frozen cranberries keep them cold prior to baking and add that fresh cranberry flavor to every bite.

Blueberry Lemon Scones

Featuring the same standard ingredients as our Cranberry Orange Scones, these offer that perfect summer flavor combo with fresh-squeezed lemon juice, a little lemon zest, and fresh frozen blueberries. Glazed with lemon goat cheese when we’ve got it!

Cinnamon Rolls

We know that people have come from far and wide for many years to enjoy the cinnamon rolls at The Mercantile, so we’re keeping that tradition alive with a recipe from the incredible Kelly Fields (The Good Book of Southern Baking) that we alter slightly by replacing the vanilla with maple syrup.

Cheddar and Chive Scones

Harkening back to some Appalachian ancestry with this Scottish recipe from Paul Hollywood’s British Baking book, we think fresh chives (or scallions, depending on what we’ve got available) really turn these up a notch. Perfectly savory and substantial.
