Bread Basket

Savor the enticing scent of freshly baked goods with our famous Bread Basket, a substantial selection of handcrafted breads that perfectly encapsulate Avayacafe’s cozy, welcoming ambiance. With each bite, the soft, pillowy fillings melt in your lips as the golden crusts crackle beneath your fingers.

Key Ingredients

• Wheat flour, yeast, sea salt, extra-virgin olive oil
• Whole wheat flour, oats, honey, sunflower seeds
• Rye flour, caraway seeds, molasses
• Butter, milk, eggs, rosemary, garlic

Quick-Made Recipe

1. Warm milk and honey together, then bloom the yeast for ten minutes until frothy.
2. Mix flours, salt, seeds, and herbs in a large bowl; add the yeast mixture and olive oil, kneading until smooth and elastic (about 8–10 minutes).
3. Let the dough rise in a covered bowl for one hour until doubled, then shape into small rolls, loaves, and focaccia rounds.
4. Brush with garlic-rosemary butter, score the tops, and bake at 200°C for 20–25 minutes until deep golden and hollow-sounding when tapped.
5. Serve warm in a linen-lined basket with whipped herb butter on the side.

The Bread Basket at Avayacafe is a celebration of flavor and artistry rather than just an appetizer. The aroma of freshly baked goods fills the air as each piece is hand-shaped in our open kitchen, luring you in from the street. It’s the small pleasure that makes every trip to Avayacafe seem like home, whether it’s enjoyed alone with a warm cappuccino or shared during lengthy chats. One thing is certain: this basket disappears quickly, whether you tear into the nutty whole-grain roll, the fragrant rosemary focaccia, or the crusty sourdough.
