How to Bake Whole Wheat Bread for Beginners
Pour the lukewarm water (
it shouldn't be too hot
) in a mixing bowl and add the yeast *, the salt and the vinegar.
Mix everything well until the yeast has dissolved and let the mixture stand and "mature" for a few minutes.
Then pour the seeds, kernels or nuts and the flour into the bowl.
Work everything into dough with the dough hook of a hand mixer.
The dough should feel
sticky and damp
.
If it is a little too dry, just add sips of water until you are satisfied with the consistency.
Now distribute the yeast dough * evenly in a lightly greased bread pan (promotional link) or loaf pan
Now the dough has to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
To do this, place it covered on the heater or use the proofing setting of your oven.
You can also heat up your oven a little, switch it off and use the
residual heat
.
As soon as the dough has increased and the surface looks smooth and stretched, switch on the oven and bake the bread at 180 degrees top / bottom heat for about 55 to 60 minutes.
Place
an
ovenproof dish with water
on the bottom of the oven.
After about 50 minutes, do the
chopstick sample
.
When the dough no longer sticks to the wooden stick, you can take the bread out of the oven.
Let the bread cool a little in the mold and then take it out of the mold.
Then let it
cool down completely
on a wire rack
.
Then the whole grain bread is ready to be enjoyed!
