A hearty and nutritious loaf of homemade spelt sandwich bread dotted with roasted sunflower seeds, which gives it a nutty taste and unique texture. The bread uses a mix of white and whole spelt flour, along with a significant amount of sunflower seeds. It’s perfect for lunch or toasted with butter and honey for breakfast.
| | |
- 365 ml Lukewarm water
- 1 tbsp Molasses
- 1 package / 7 g Active dry yeast
- 250 g Wholemeal spelt flour
- 250 g Spelt bread flour
- ¾ tsp Sea salt
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 100 g Toasted unsalted sunflower seeds plus extra for form and topping
- 1 Egg white
|
- Dissolve molasses in lukewarm water in the bowl of your mixer and sprinkle dry yeast over the top. Let yeast activate until it forms a creamy layer on top of the water, about 5 minutes.
- Add in spelt flours and stir with a dough hook until everything comes together, then add the sunflower seeds, salt and olive oil, knead until it forms a smooth, elastic ball that pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
- Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and leave in a warm place for the dough to double in size, which will take about an hour.
- Brush a 25x11x10 loaf pan with a little olive oil and sprinkle the bottom and sides with sunflower seeds.
- Turn out the dough onto a lightly oiled work surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle, about 22x35cm, and from 22cm-side roll it up and pinch ends together. Place it into the prepared loaf pan.
- Allow the bread rise, covered, for 45-60 minutes or until the dough has filled the whole loaf pan. Brush the top with egg white and sprinkle some more sunflower seeds on top.
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Bake the bread in the middle of hot oven for 40-45 minutes. Allow bread to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning out on a baking rack to cool completely.
