This recipe makes a 750g loaf.
Ingredients
500g white spelt flour
1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
10g (2 teaspoons) bread improver
10g (2 teaspoons) salt
5g (2 teaspoons) sugar
20ml (1 tablespoon) of oil
300 ml of water
Method
Place all ingredients except water into a bowl. Beat with mixer
while slowly adding water. Beat for about 10 minutes until dough
becomes firm. If dough is sticky add some more flour till firm.
Cover bowl with a teatowel or plastic wrap and leave in a warm
place until dough doubles in size -- usually about 20 - 30 minutes.
Punch dough down to remove all air pockets.
Shape and place in suitable loaf tin.
Allow to rise again.
Cook in a hot oven (200C) until brown. Hint: loaf is cooked if
it sounds hollow when tapped.
