Abm spelt bread

2 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
1teaspoonRed Star Active Dry yeast
1⅓cupBread flour
1cupSpelt flour
¼cupRolled oats
1tablespoonLecithin granules
2teaspoonsGluten
1tablespoonDry milk
1teaspoonSalt
1teaspoonBarley malt
1cupWater

Directions

I made this in a 1-lb. Panny. For larger loaves, tell Meal Master to change the servings to 3.

Spelt is said to have enough gluten to substitute 1/1 for bread flour, but I thought I'd play it safe the first time and mix it with bread flour. It's also cheaper that way. Spelt flour, btw, has 21 grams of protein per cup as opposed to 16 grams per cup of bread flour.

It's a nice down-to-earth bread--nothing flashy. Light brown with a chewy crust. It slices easily with my new Slice 'n Easy. Good for sandwiches.

Cheers, Margie, NY
