Grainy Days Kitchen

Grainy Days Kitchen Certified home kitchen serving the Merced County community and surrounding areas. We take pride in baking everything from scratch, with love.

We offer handcrafted sourdough bread, celebration cakes, granola and more, made from fresh ground whole grains. Hello, my name is Rachel, and in 2023 I founded Grainy Days. Grainy Days is a woman owned and operated, certified home-based micro bakery, located in Atwater, California. My love for baking has been a lifelong passion. From an early age, I've always insisted on using only the finest ingr

edients and baking everything from scratch. I firmly believe that to achieve the highest quality, it is essential to have a hand in producing your own ingredients. My goal is to produce as many ingredients I can, and source others from local, small farms. My menu offerings change with the seasons and are made from freshly milled whole grains. At Grainy Days, the ethics of earth care, people care, and fair share form the bedrock of our operations. Every decision I make is guided by these principles, ensuring that we not only produce exceptional baked goods but also contribute positively to the community and the planet.

Hello friends!

Yesterday, and I had a relaxing evening at . We hand gathered buckets of farm fresh apples to prepare for this week's pop-up.

This menu will feature my sourdough conchas, which have been a big hit. I have heard some great feedback about them, and I am pleased to bring them back for you guys. They are definitely a labor of love. I shape and score every one by hand, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

They are made with local organically grown whole wheat by . I grind the wheat berries fresh to order, and you can absolutely taste the difference real whole grain baking can bring to the table. These conchas are made with quality ingredients such as organic vegetable shortening(from organic, sustainably farmed palm trees), real vanilla bean, and real fruit powders.

The apple cookies are an old favorite that I am so excited to bring to my customers. These cookies are made with organic homemade apple sauce, fresh apple chunks, oats, almond flour, and chopped walnuts. They are topped with a drizzle of maple syrup. These delicious treats just so happen to be gluten-free and dairy-free.

I am well past due to include a gluten-free item in my menu, I hope I can redeem myself with these cookies🤞.

You can rest assured knowing that at Grainy Days, we pride ourselves on baking with quality in mind. We bake and sell what we would make for our own family, only with the most care and quality in mind. Our bakes are free of imitation flavors and dyes, preservatives, and commercially produced white flours.

If you want to taste the goods and support local small businesses, then please share this post with like-minded people and come check me out at my pop-ups.

Hello friends! I am excited to announce that will be popping up with this Saturday at .
Come by and enjoy the jazz ob vinyl while you sip on some delicious coffee and nom nom on some fresh baked goodies from me. 👩‍🍳

I have done a few pop-ups at this location, and I have heard some great feedback from my customers about the sourdough conchitas and coffee cakes.

I have no idea what to make. I want to provide what you guys want, so please vote in the poll and lmk what you want to see Saturday morning.

Also, sound off in the comments with any suggestions on food offerings you'd like to see from . We operate our business under cottage food law and can only make foods from the cottage approved foods list.

While I do enjoy the occasion sweet treat, I often crave a hearty, grain packed treat.

And I am curious: Do any of you feel the same way?

I plan to offer items from both sides of the spectrum. Some sweet, indulgent options, some hearty and wholesome.

If you live in the Merced County area, is this something you're looking for from a small home based baker like myself?
