Wholewheat Bread with Walnuts



http://schneiderchen.de | © 2011 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




A wholesome, hearty, nutty wholewheat bread that goes wonderfully with a cold meat platter, fruit or cheese plate. Perfect toasted for a nutritious and healthy breakfast too.

Wholewheat Bread with Walnuts

- adapted from Brote für Genießer
  • 200 g Wholewheat flour
  • 80 ml Lukewarm water
  • 20 g Fresh yeast
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 Apple, peeled, cored and grated
  • 150 g Sourdough starter, 100% hydration
  • 100 g Whole grain spelt flour
  • 350 g Dark bread flour
  • 10 g Salt
  • 4 tbsp Walnut oil
  • 205 ml Lukewarm water
  • 50 g Honey
  • 20 g Millet
  • 20 g Sesame seeds
  • 20 g Flaxseeds
  • 100 g Walnuts, chopped
  1. In a mixing bowl, add in wholewheat flour and make a well in the center. Crumble the fresh yeast into the well and add in 80 ml water and sugar. Stir together and leave it for 15 minutes.
  2. Peel, core and grate the apple. Add in sourdough starter, grated apple, flours, salt, walnut oil, water, honey, millet, sesame seeds, flaxseeds and chopped walnuts. Stir everything together on low speed until incorporated, then increase the speed and stir until a smooth and soft dough forms. Cover and set aside to proof for an hour.
  3. Gently knead the dough and divide into two portions. Shape one portion into a round and another into a log. Place the round dough, seam side up, into a well-floured proofing basket and another one into a parchment paper lined loaf pan. Dust the surface with flour and cover with a clean towel. Set aside to proof for a further 60 minutes.
  4. Preheat the oven to 220C/430F. Turn the boule out onto a wooden peel dusted with cornmeal. Sprinkle some flour over dough and cut some decorative slashes on the top of bread. Make a long slash lengthwise down the center of top of the loaf in the loaf pan. Bake for about 45 minutes until nicely golden brown.

And yet another gorgeous bread recipe!! I was excited seeing the sourdough starter because a friend of mine gave me some a few weeks ago. I've actually managed to keep it going and have made a couple loaves of bread, but I'm still learning. When you say "100% hydration" next to sourdough starter, what does that mean? Does it relate to a "fed" starter or something else? Thanks for your help!

A 100% hydration sourdough starter is the starter fed with water and flour at equal weights.

Angie, thank you for your kind and comforting words re: my eye upcoming eye surgery...just didn't want to pass up your gorgeous wholewheat/walnut bread...truly a 'labor of love' and a 'work of art'; stunning, perfect and super delicious! Nothing like working with fresh yeast, and sourdough starter, but most of all, to have the 'artist' talent as you have...like an artist working on canvas; but in your case an 'artist' making MAGIC with dough!

and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head. The issue is something which too few folks are
speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy I stumbled across this in my hunt for something relating to this.

I have not visited your site for a while due to hectic work but when I saw this picture on FB, I knew there is another one waiting for me here! The photo captures the eye quickly!
I am not lucky in sourdough started though. I will have to adjust this recipe. If you have a version without the starter, let me know!
