Equipment
- loaf pan
- mixing pan
- electric beaters handheld or freestanding
- oven
Ingredients
- 3¾ cups spelt flour sprouted
- 2-1/2 cups water
- 2 Tablespoons psyllium husk whole (This brand is best and the safest way to ensure success with the recipe, as psylliums vary brand to brand.)
- 2 Tablespoons fat of choice melted if solid (I've used both butter and olive oil.)
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 1 Tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda sifted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, one strip, and then grease the two ends that aren't covered. Place loaf pan in the oven to preheat.
- In large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients: sprouted spelt flour, psyllium husk whole, baking powder, sea salt and baking soda.
- Add water, fat and syrup. Use handheld (or freestanding) electric beaters on medium speed for about 30 seconds to combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula, and allow to sit and thicken for 15 minutes.
- Remove hot pan from oven. Scrape and dump dough into hot pan. Quickly smooth top surface. Use a sharp knife to cut a 3/4" slit down the center. Return pan to oven.
- Bake 1 hour 5 minutes. Bread should be nicely dark golden brown. Allow to cool on rack at least 30 minutes, or cool fully, before slicing.
- Bread keeps at room temperature in a sealed container for 3 to 4 days, or slice and freeze. To defrost, leave out at room temperature, or toast.
