Ingredients

  • 400g white flour

  • 50g brown flour

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 2 tsp brown sugar

  • 400mls lukewarm water

  • 12g dried yeast or 25g fresh yeast

  • Seeds to sprinkle on top

Method

Preheat the oven to 220C.

Mix the flour with the salt.

In another bowl, mix the sugar with the water and yeast. Stir well to combine. Sit the bowl in a warm place to allow the yeast to activate. After 5 or 10 minutes, the mixture should have a creamy, frothy appearance.

When ready, stir and pour in to the flour mixture – it should be too wet to knead. Put the mixture into the greased tin and sprinkle the top with seeds if you like. Leave to rise until it has doubled in size.

Baking At Eastwoods Kelly Eastwood shows Emma how it’s done.

 

Resting Bread Dough Leave bread to rise for around 15 minutes (or until doubled in size) before baking.

Bake in the oven for 30 minutes and remove it from the tin. Place it back in the oven for another 15 – 20 minutes and bake until it sounds hollow when you tap it.

Remove from the oven and enjoy!
