This freshly milled einkorn flour sandwich bread recipe is ideal for beginners or anyone who wants a soft, fluffy loaf with minimal effort! Whether you are new to einkorn, or just need a simple and delicious bread recipe, you are in the right place!
1tbspapple cider vinegar(optional, but HIGHLY recommended)
Instructions
Add flour, salt, vinegar, syrup, and yeast to the bowl of an electric mixer and attach a bread hook, if available.
Heat water to between 100 and 115°F. Don't go hotter than that or it will kill the yeast.
Into the flour mixture, slowly add the water and mix for 10 minutes (YES, 10 minutes) using a bread hook attachment (if possible). If kneading by hand, knead until dough is soft and smooth.
Once the dough is thoroughly mixed, remove the hook from the bowl, scrape down the sides, and cover the bowl. Allow bread to rise in a warm area for 25 minutes.
Butter an 8x4” bread pan and grease your hands before shaping the dough into a log. Place the dough in the pan and allow to rise, uncovered, in a warm place for 20 minutes.
Bake for 30 minutes at 350°F until golden brown.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before turning bread out of pan and onto a cooling rack. Cool completely before slicing for the best crumb, otherwise the bread may be dry and crumbly.
Notes
You CANNOT taste the vinegar in the finished recipe. It just helps the yeast to work better and creates a stronger, fluffier loaf!
