I know that bread is an evil food these days with everyone counting their carbs, but this is one food I could never give up. The more I learn about carbs the more I realize they are not the problem if you eat the right ones. Of course, there are bad carbs, but many are good ones too. The real culprit is protein — we eat way too much of that. Read my blog post about protein by clicking HERE.
This bread is filling, wholesome, plant-based, and above all –DELICIOUS! This recipe is adapted from a Martha Stewart boulle recipe. I made a few tweaks to make it a little better (in my opinion).
Starter:
1/2 cup organic flour
1/4 tsp. yeast
1/3 cup lukewarm water
Ingredients:
1 tsp yeast
1 2/3 cup lukewarm water
3 tsp. salt
4 cups organic flour
-
Mix the ingredients for the starter. Make the starter at least 8-12 hours in advance. I like to make it the night before and then its ready to go the next day.
-
Add the yeast to the warm water and let sit until frothy.
-
Put the starter in a mixing bowl.
-
Add salt, yeast/water mixture, and flour.
-
Mix until the dough feels firm and the flour is well incorporated.
-
Cover with no stick spray and a piece of plastic and place in a warm oven to rise for about 1 1/2 hours.
-
Punch down and place into two loaf pans. At this point you can also turn it into a real boulle.
-
Let rise another hour.
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
-
Bake bread for about 30 minutes until golden brown.
-
Eat and enjoy!
