It started with a simple dream

The Dough House began the way the best things do — with a craving and a stubborn belief that bread should be better than what the shelf offered. One starter, a hot oven, and a kitchen that smelled like home.

Everything we make traces back to those fundamentals: create thriving bread, build a real business, and feed hungry people. Every loaf is mixed, shaped, and baked by hand, in small batches, to order. Nothing sits on a shelf going stale. If it leaves our kitchen, it's because it's good enough to put in front of our own family.

From naturally-leavened loaves to banana bread that disappears before it cools, we bake what we'd want to eat — and share it with our neighbours across Durham Region & the Peterborough area through pickup and local delivery.

This is just the beginning. Starting June 2026, you'll find us at farmers' markets around Durham & Peterborough, bringing the bakery to your neighbourhood, one loaf at a time.
