Instructions

very tasty and juicy, without sourdough

Mix the flour with the yeast, mix in the mixed grains and salt with a food processor, and gradually add the lukewarm water. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes. It should not be too sticky and should easily pull away from the sides of the bowl. Place the dough in a floured bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place until it has increased in volume. This will take about 1-1.5 hours. Line a loaf pan with baking paper. Using a spatula, transfer the well-risen dough into the lined pan. Be careful, the dough may be a little stickier at this point; this is normal. It doesn’t need to be kneaded any further. If you like, you can sprinkle a few more grains on top. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (top/bottom heat) for about 45 minutes, depending on how brown you like it. Let the finished bread cool on a wire rack.
