Wholemeal Spelt Bread

This is the easiest and most delicious spelt flour recipe we’ve found. It’s super quick and delicious and makes great toast.

Pre-heat oven to 200°C.

500g Wholemeal Spelt (or white works just as well)
50g Sesame seeds
50g Sunflower seeds
50g Linseeds
Extra seeds for sprinkling on top
10-12g dried active yeast or 32-34g fresh yeast (use a bit more yeast for the wholemeal flour as it's heavier and needs a bit more lift)
1/2 tsp salt
500ml water

Mix all dry ingredients together

Dissolve the fresh yeast in warm water (dried yeast can be added to the flour/seed mix) and mix well with the water.

It's a very wet dough, more like a cake mix but that's how it should be.

Brush a loaf tin with olive oil, fill with the mixture, brush top with olive oil and sprinkle extra seeds on top.

Place in pre-heated oven for 1 hour

Then take out of the tin and put loaf back in for another 5-10min (usually 5min is enough)

Let it cool down and enjoy!
