WHOLE-GRAIN SPELT/RYE LOAF in Breadmaker

Place the following ingredients in your breadmaker in this order:

  1. ) 10g SureBake yeast (make sure to buy the red-lid jar from the supermarket)
  2. ) 360g whole-grain organic spelt flour
  3. ) 90g whole-grain organic rye flour
  4. ) 3 Tbsp gluten flour (buy a small bag of wheat gluten eg: "FreshLife" from supermarket in baking aisle)
  5. ) 1 Tbsp organic sugar (eg: coconut sugar)
  6. ) 25g vegetable oil (eg: olive oil)
  7. ) 1 heaped tsp salt

NOTE: Some breadmakers require the liquids to be place in first - if so, just reverse the above order of ingredients, ending with the yeast.

Turn your breadmaker on to large sized loaf.
Choose "Wholemeal" setting - not "Bread mix" setting!
