Amazing Spelt Bread

Instructions

1. Grease and lightly flour your bread/loaf tin. I actually used a non-stick lining paper. The loaf just lifted out of the tin
2. In a large bowl mix up your dry ingredients: flour and yeast, then add salt, sunflower and pumpkin seeds or walnuts.
3. Create a hole in the middle and gradually mix in the warm water while stirring. The dough has to be sticky and wet, so don’t add any extra flour.
4. Cover the bowl with a tea towel and place somewhere warm and snugly for 45 minutes to rise.
5. Preheat oven to 220 and flour your work top.
6. Take the puffed up dough and knead for 5-10 minutes. The dough should still be sticky.
7. Place the dough into your bread tin, sprinkle with some extra seeds and pop in the oven for 45 minutes.
8. Depending on your oven, after 20 minutes maybe you should turn it down to 200C if the top gets too dark.
9. The loaf should be a light brown colour when ready. Not dark and burnt, like my first attempt.
10. Let it cool down before taking it out of the tin.
