Process
Pete's Bread sourdough is made from a blend of speciality flours, water and sea salt with no artificial ingredients, flour improvers or preservatives. ​Each loaf takes around 32 hours to make; they're hand-shaped, proofed slowly in wood pulp bannetons and baked in a stone oven to a golden brown crust.​ The long, slow fermentation process produces a tastier, more digestible loaf with a wild open crumb.

Meet Pete
Pete Hathaway is a self-taught baker who has been running his micro bakery and supplying his local community since 2021. He specialises in making country-style sourdough bread using speciality flours.
​
Pete's Bread micro bakery was established in Oxford, England when Pete's passion for baking sourdough at home for family and friends grew into a small business - baking bread, patisserie and other sweet treats and delivering them around the neighbourhood by bike, every Saturday morning. Back then, the bakery was housed in a small 2.5m wooden cabin at the bottom of the garden!
​
In 2022, Pete, his family and his microbakery all relocated to the Causeway Coast, Northern Ireland.
​
His signature sourdough 'The Peatlands Loaf' won a Gold award in the 2022 World Bread Awards.
​
Pete's sourdough and patisserie is now available exclusively to guests at Peatlands Causeway Coast.
