MEET GRAIN & LOAF AND CHARLOTTE
Hi and welcome! My name is Charlotte Han, the author of this cookbook and the founder of Grain & Loaf Company, a health-focused pop-up bakery. Outside of baking and, obviously, eating everything that I make, I am also an artist, a creator, a runner, a bit of a bird nerd, and the world’s # 1 bagel and scallion cream cheese fan. A few years ago, when I first began learning about nutrition and the importance of properly fueling the body, I was surprised by how little nutrition education many people receive. Combined with the widespread commercialization of convenience foods in North America, I noticed that many people around me were unaware of the profound impact nutrition can have on performance, recovery, long-term health, and disease prevention. Inspired by my background in endurance sports and my passion for nutrition and baking, I launched my own pop-up bakery during the summer of 2025, where I developed and sold baked goods made with whole grains and natural sweeteners. Between farmers markets, I collaborate with many small businesses and local communities to share my love for nutrition, science, and good food. I hope that through my work, I inspire you to learn a little more about the power of the human body and nutrition. This website and my Instagram @grainandloaf_co are great places to start!
MY COOKBOOK: MARKET TO TABLE
I am ecstatic to announce that I have written my first COOKBOOK! Outside of farmers market season, which is obviously the best season, I wanted to continue sharing my love for nutrition and wholesome baking with the people around me. That is when I decided to gather my favorite recipes into a cookbook. My book, Market to Table, is a collection of recipes I have developed, tested, and refined over the years, including many of the baked goods that were sold at my farmers market stand. I hope these recipes bring as much joy to your kitchen as they have to mine. Happy baking!
Coming soon...

Thank you for supporting Grain & Loaf Company and for joining me on this journey of baking, nutrition, and community.
