Bake Shop Dutch Crunch loaves get reimagined into the best, gourmet ice cream sandwiches you’ll sink your teeth into with this must-try hack.

To make: Stir 2 tbsp each softened butter and sugar with ½ tsp Compliments Ground Cinnamon in a small bowl. Spread over two 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick slices of Dutch Crunch Bread on both sides. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 180°C (350°F), 5 mins. per side. Turn on broiler. Broil, checking often to prevent burning, until browned and toasted, 1 to 2 mins. per side. Set aside to cool slightly. Cut a block of vanilla ice cream to fit toast. Sandwich ice cream between toast, then cut into quarters. Serve immediately.

5. Italian-style Pangrattato Seasoned Breadcrumbs

These are no ordinary breadcrumbs! Often called “poor man’s Parmesan” in Italy, these crunchy, garlic butter fried and seasoned crumbs using the Bread Shop sourdough bread, is a textural flavour enhancer for pasta and more.

To make: Process cubed Stuyver’s Sourdough Loaf in a food processor until they turn into breadcrumbs. Melt 1 tbsp garlic butter in a frying pan set over medium heat. Add ½ cup breadcrumbs. Cook, stirring often, until toasted and crisp, 3 to 5 mins. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 tsp each lemon zest and finely chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle over pasta, soup, casseroles, thickening sauces or stews or for breading or crumbing foods.
