MOM'S SPELT BREAD

Mom's Spelt Bread image

My mother's wheat allergy means that in our house everything was baked with spelt. This is the bread recipe I grew up on, and I've never seen a spelt bread to equal it. This bread is delicious warm but will slice much more neatly when cooled fully.

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

3 ½ cups whole grain spelt flour
3 cups white spelt flour, or more as needed
2 cups very warm water
½ cup canola oil
¼ cup white sugar
4 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 ½ teaspoons salt

Steps:

Mix both 3 1/2 cups whole grain spelt flour, 3 cups white spelt flour, water, oil, sugar, yeas, and salt together in a bowl with a spoon until mostly combined. Switch to kneading by hand, adding more white spelt flour if necessary, but not too much. Keep kneading until dough is the texture of your earlobe.
Place dough on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet in the shape of a loaf and allow to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (185 degrees C).
Bake in the preheated oven until top is a deep golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped, about 20 minutes.

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

8 cups spelt flour
½ cup sesame seeds
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 tablespoon blackstrap molasses
2 teaspoons baking soda
4 ¼ cups milk

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
In a large bowl, mix together the spelt flour, sesame seeds, salt, molasses, baking soda and milk until well blended. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Placing a tin of the same size over the top of the loaf while baking gives it a lovely crust.
