About
My name is Derek Longenecker
I'm a self-taught home baker with over a decade of experience, specializing in crafting the perfect loaf of bread. What started as a hobby quickly became a passion, as I discovered the joy of kneading dough and watching it rise into something delicious and comforting. My kitchen has become a place of creativity, experimentation, and the pursuit of that perfect crust and crumb. Whether it's a rustic sourdough, a perfect slice, or a chewy bagel, each bread I bake is a labor of love, and I'm thrilled to share my journey and creations with you!

"I have been ordering Dough By Derek for a while now and it has never disappointed! The sourdough bread has a good crispy crust and is soft and chewy on the inside with air pockets, indicators of fresh bread! Derek always delivers my sourdough bread and bagels so fresh it is still warm and smells sweet and floury, so delicious. My kids and I love using it for grilled cheese sandwiches, avocado toast, tuna melts, and with blueberry jam, basically anything! I never feel guilty eating this bread because it only has 3 ingredients! Thank you for making healthy bread!"
