Ingredients
300ml warm water
1.5 tsp active yeast
1 tsp salt
2tsp demerara sugar
2.5 tbsp olive oil
400g Shipton Mill white spelt
1 heaped tsp xanthan gum
You will also need a Bread Machine with a Rye Setting. If you don't have a Rye setting, make sure you choose a setting that mixes for a minimum of time.
Method
- Pour the warm water into the bread pan and add the yeast. Gently agitate the water to activate the yeast. The water goes cloudy.
- Add the salt, sugar and oil.
- Now add the white spelt - you will get better results if you pour this in rather than spoon it in
- Add the xanthan gum
- Set the machine!
