Recipe
type: Bread
Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 10
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 1/4 cups unbleached all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 packet (3/4 Tbsp) yeast (I use instant dry yeast for ease!)
- 1.5 cups warm water
- 1/4 cup seeds (sesame, pumpkin etc...can be omitted...but why??)
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
Instructions
1. Combine warm water (like
bath water, or about 110*) with yeast in a large mixing bowl and let set for 5
minutes to get foamy.
OR IF YOU USE SAF instant yeast skip #1 and add yeast directly to the flour in step 2!)
Add salt and flours and stir with a wooden spoon.
The result will be a sticky, rough dough.
2. Lift the dough out of the
bowl and lightly grease the bowl with nonstick spray or olive oil. Cover with
plastic wrap and let rise in the refrigerator for two hours or in a warm place
for 1 hour.
3. Once doubled in size,
lightly sprinkle the dough with flour and transfer to a generously floured work
surface. Knead a few times adding flour as needed and then add oats and millet(or seeds)
in batches. Knead until until grains are incorporated and the dough is no
longer sticky.
4. Place on lightly greased
baking sheet. Sift a light coating of flour over the top to help keep the dough
moist. Let rest for 45-60 minutes.
5. Preheat oven to 450°F and
place a metal or cast iron pan (not glass, Pyrex, or ceramic) on the lowest
oven rack, and have 1 cup of hot water ready.
6. When ready to bake, slash
the bread 2 or 3 times with a knife, making a cut about ½-inch deep.
7. Place bread in oven and
carefully pour hot water into the shallow pan on the rack beneath. Close oven
door quickly.
8. Bake the bread for 25 to 35
minutes, or until golden brown and crusty.
9. Remove the bread from the
oven and cool on a rack. Once fully cooled, store leftovers in a plastic bag at
room temp.
