Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 300 g wheat or spelt
  • 200 g rye
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 4 tbsp syrup (gold juice, beetroot syrup)
  • 400 ml water
  • 1 cube of yeast (42 g fresh yeast)

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Finely grind the grain in a mill and place it in a bowl with the salt. Make a well in the center and add the water. Crumble the yeast into the water to ensure it dissolves quickly and completely. Now add the yeast juice to the water and knead everything thoroughly with a dough hook. Pour the dough into a pan (I always use a loaf pan lined with baking paper) and flatten it as desired or leave it as it falls. Bake for one hour. In a convection oven without preheating, bake for 20 minutes at 220°C and 40 minutes at 190°C. Spray with water when the temperature changes. This creates a great crust. In a regular oven, bake for 60 minutes at 200°C. Spray with water here as well.
