I was looking for a recipe for spelt flour.
If you aren't familiar with spelt, it is as healthy or healthier than whole wheat flour. The nice thing about Spelt, is that is a lot lighter than wheat flour & can be used more like a white flour!
Anyway, I did not have enough spelt, so I used 1/2 spelt & 1/2 bread flour. This is the absolute easiest bread ever.
This is how I made it tonight, using what I had, then I will post the actual recipe.
2 c. spelt flour
2 c. bread flour
1/4 t. salt
1 t. baking soda
1 T. honey
2 1/8 c. milk
Mix this together with a spatula. It was still kind of moist, not able to be kneaded. Greased a round baking pan. Dumped the "dough" in. Smoothed it a bit with my spatula & put it in the oven at 350 degrees. My oven was not even pre-heated yet. Baked it for 40 min. Took it out & rubbed butter on top.
Waited a 1/2 hour while I gave the kids baths. Sliced it with my electric knife & made toasted ham & cheese with it. WOW!! It was a hit. Was crusty around the edges, which made it sooooo yummy!
Seriously, this was SOooo Easy! I will post the actual recipe, then you can click it & see the other reviews. You can add cinnamon & raisins to the dough too if you want. That would be delicious toasted for breakfast!
Ingredients
8 cups spelt flour
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 tablespoon blackstrap molasses
2 teaspoons baking soda
4 1/4 cups milk
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
In a large bowl, mix together the spelt flour, sesame seeds, salt, molasses, baking soda and milk until well blended. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Placing a tin of the same size over the top of the loaf while baking gives it a lovely crust.
