Strawberry Streusel Slices

Monday, May 20, 2019

It's a spring coffee cake with three delicious layers. On the bottom is a spelt pastry made with Quark (German fresh cheese) and olive oil, sweetened with erythritol (a sugar alcohol that has zero glycemic index and it does not increase the blood sugars), followed by a layer of fresh strawberries, then it's finished with a buttery crunchy streusel. This is an easy and delicious way to enjoy strawberry season.

Topping & Streusel	Crust with German Quark and Olive Oil
100 g Refined spelt flour 50 g Erythritol Pinch of black salt 80 g Unsalted butter, chopped 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract 600 g Fresh strawberries, halved	150 g Quark (German fresh cheese) 70 ml Milk 75 ml Mild olive oil 60 g Erythritol Pinch of black salt 280 g Refined spelt flour 12 g Baking powder 3 / 9 g Strawberry flavoured tea bags 30 g Almond meal

Place spelt, erythritol and salt for the streusel together in a mixing bowl. Add in chopped butter and vanilla extract. Rub everything together until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Place all the ingredients for the crust, except 30 grams of almond meal, in a mixing bowl. Beat with a handheld mixer until a smooth dough forms. Press the dough evenly into a 22x26x4cm baking pan lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle the reserved almond meal over.
Gently press the halved strawberries into the crust and top with the prepared streusel.
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Bake the bar in the middle of hot oven for 40 minutes until nicely golden. Remove and turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing into bars.

Peanut Butter Poppy Bread

Monday, May 13, 2019

It's basicall a yeast spelt loaf rolled around with a mixture of crunchy peanut butter, poppy and goji berries. The reason I used poppy seed filling was that I just had some leftover from making cookies a while ago. If you can't find poppy, just use more peanut butter or simply skip it.

Dough	Filling
180 ml Kefir, room-temperature 1 Large egg, room-temperature 60 g Butter, melted and cooled slightly 50 g Red Wheatberries, milled into flour 300 g Refined spelt flour 1/2 tsp Sea salt 1 tbsp Raw sugar 6 g Active dry yeast Egg wash 1 tbsp Sunflower seeds for the topping	100 g Crunchy peanut butter 100 g Dr. Oetker poppy filling 30 g Dried goji berries, chopped

Add keifr, egg, and melted butter to the pan of the bread machine, then flours, salt, sugar and active dry yeast. Or place them into the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Program the machine for dough cycle, and press Start. When the cycle finishes, remove the dough and place it on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out into a rectangle, about 12 by 9 inches. Spread peanut butter over the dough to within one inch of the edges, then top with poppy filling and sprinkle the chopped goji berries evenly over the dough. Roll the dough up tightly on the short side to form into a evenly shaped roll. Place the roll into a 30cm loaf pan lined with baking paper.
Cover it and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place until it doubles in size, about an hour. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Brush the dough with egg wash and sprinkle the sunflower seeds over. Bake the loaf for about 28 minutes until golden brown.
