The best fall breads are nourishing, full of grains and flavourful enough to stand up to a soup, a stew or a cheese board. At Inéwa, five organic breads made in Quebec stand out when the weather cools down.
In the fall, we turn the oven back on. We pull out the big pots. And we crave a bread with character. Not a bread that disappears under the toppings. A bread that holds up in soup, toasts beautifully and has something to say.
This fall, bread deserves a spot at the centre of the table.
Choose whole grains
Canada’s food guide recommends whole grain foods, which have more fibre than refined grains. And according to Health Canada, fibre helps keep you feeling full longer. Handy when the crisp air sharpens your appetite. A good habit at the grocery store: read the ingredient list. According to the food guide, the words “whole wheat” or “multigrain” don’t guarantee on their own that a food is whole grain. Look for a whole grain among the first ingredients instead.
We explain why the grains in your bread matter more than you think.
Corn with Millet: golden and mild
Corn with Millet bread combines KAMUT® flour, an ancient wheat that has never been hybridized or genetically modified, with two naturally gluten-free cereals: corn and millet.
The result: it contains only 1.3% gluten! Cornmeal and whole millet grains give it a light crunch that pairs beautifully with squash soup or chili. This 500 g loaf is made with Canadian organic KAMUT® and millet flours. Keep in mind that it still contains gluten and is not suitable for people with celiac disease.
Buckwheat with Chia: the toasting bread
Buckwheat with Chia bread brings together three star ingredients:
- KAMUT®, for its texture and flavour
- buckwheat, a naturally gluten-free cereal
- chia seed, which is particularly rich in fibre
Made with a stone-ground whole KAMUT® sourdough, this 550 g loaf has a dense crumb and a slightly rustic flavour. Try it toasted with apple butter and aged cheddar. The sourdough gives it a little natural tang. Here is how sourdough differs from yeast.
7 Grain Multigrain: the lunch champion
7 Grain Multigrain bread is a high source of fibre. Its sprouted flaxseed, cracked rye, sunflower seeds and toasted sesame seeds, along with oat, wheat, rye and barley flakes, give it a rich texture in every bite.
It’s the perfect sandwich bread for fall lunches:
- a grilled cheese with tomato soup
- an egg salad sandwich
- hummus with roasted vegetables
This 500 g loaf is made with Canadian organic wheat, rye and barley flours and flakes.
100% Rye: bold and honest
100% Rye bread has a slightly tangy flavour that delights true connoisseurs.
Its ingredient list fits in four items: rye flour, water, stone-ground whole rye sourdough and sea salt. That’s it. Its bold taste pairs with equally confident flavours: smoked salmon, firm cheese, pickles or a hearty pea soup. This 680 g loaf is made with Canadian organic rye flour.

Spelt & Buckwheat: for sensitive stomachs
Spelt & Buckwheat bread is certified low FODMAP. Its recipe combines whole spelt flour, buckwheat and sourdough.
It’s designed for bread lovers who live with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and are looking for a better-tolerated loaf. FODMAPs are carbohydrates that some people have trouble digesting. We break them down in our article What Are FODMAPs?. This 550 g loaf is made with Canadian organic spelt and buckwheat flours. Spelt contains gluten, so this bread is not suitable for people with celiac disease.
Keep your bread in the freezer, not the fridge
A slightly tired slice? It gets its texture back in the toaster. All the details are in our article on storing bread.
The fridge, on the other hand, makes bread go stale faster: staling speeds up at around 4 °C (39 °F).
