    Real Ingredients. Real Connections. Really Good Baking.

    Hi, I’m Kendra! Wife, mom of three, and baker with a heart for faith-filled hospitality. I grew up learning from my mom and grandmother, worked in professional kitchens, and now pass those same lessons on to my kids (floury fingerprints included).

    At The Baker’s Table, you’ll find from-scratch recipes tested in my own family kitchen and written for yours. Simple, clear, and dependable, with the nostalgic flavors and encouragement busy moms and family bakers need to feel confident.

    Whether you are baking for Sunday brunch, your Church small group, or a cozy afternoon at home, I am so glad you are here. Let’s bake something beautiful together.

    When I’m not baking, I serve foster families in South Carolina as Director of Operations at Lily Pad. My husband Eric, who also works at Lily Pad, manages the blog’s tech, SEO, and growth.

    Together, we built The Baker’s Table to share recipes that create connection. We have been self-declared foodies for decades, and long to share the Gospel and really good food to others.
