Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Measure your wheat berries and mill them fresh
- Add wet ingredients to the bowl of your mixer and mix well. (water, honey and oil)
- Add the remaining dry ingredients to the fresh flower and mix well. (sunflower lecithin, salt and yeast)
- Pour dry ingredients to the bowl of your wet ingredients.
- Using the dough hook, mix on low until combined.
- Once combined turn the mixer on medium-low until the dough forms a ball and pulls away from the bowl.
- Continue mixing until the dough forms a window pane (see picture above)
- Cover with damp towel and place in a warm place until doubled in size. (in the oven on the proof setting is what I do)
- Once doubled, dump the dough onto the counter and shape it into a sandwich loaf by rolling it up into itself and placing it in a bread pan seal side down. (for a very quick version see notes below)
- Cover with damp towel until doubled again
- Bake in a 350 oven for 30-45 minutes or until the inner temperature reaches 195-200 degrees.
- For best results wait an hr before cutting... but it you can't wait that long, devour it hot!
Notes
For a very quick option, you can shape the dough into a ball after its first rise and immediately bake in a pre-heated dutch oven. Here's how: (P.s this will get bread on the dinner table in about 1 hour!)
- Pre-heat your dutch oven at 450-480 degrees.
- Once your dough is mixed and has achieved its first rise (doubled in size), dump the dough onto the counter, shape it into a ball and place it onto a piece of parchment paper.
- Lifting from the edges of the parchment paper, carefully place the dough into the pre-heated dutch oven and cover with the hot lid.
- Bake for 30-45 minutes until the inside of the bread is 185-210 degrees.
