A great bread for those with wheat issues or looking to keep their pH balance relatively neutral. Ingredients:
1/2 cup flax seeds |
3 cups water |
6 tbsp quinoa |
6 tbsp millet |
1 tsp salt |
3 cups spelt flour |
2 tsp baking soda |
1/2 tsp baking powder |
9 tbsp vegetable oil |
2 tbsp cider vinegar |
Directions:
1. Preheat Oven to 350F.
2. In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the quinoa, millet and 1/4 tsp of salt.
3. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for about 30-40 minutes or until the water is absorbed.
4. Transfer the grains to a bowl to cool.
5. In another large bowl, mix together the flour, seeds, baking soda, baking powder and the remaining salt.
6. Add the remaining 1-1/2 cups water, oil and vinegar to the cooked grains and whisk well.
7. Fold the grains into this mixture to form a thick batter. Handle it gently, few lumps wont matter. Over mixing will not give a fluffier/lighter bread.
8. Pour the batter into a greased 8 by 4 inch loaf pan (or a square dish works too ? whatever your preference).
9. Smooth the top and bake for 50-60 minutes
