I found that when I started my Trim Healthy Mama life style I was avoiding breads at all costs, a mindset I had learned when doing Atkins previously. Bread is not bad for you especially when it is made with the proper ingredients and techniques. Thank heavens for this lifestyle!!
Sprouted Soda Bread
Printable Recipe
3 cups
sprouted spelt flour
1 2/3 cups
low fat milk kefir
1 tsp salt
1 tsp
baking soda
Combine kefir and flour in a glass container. Leave
somewhere warm for 12-24 hours to ferment.
The next
day, start by preheating the oven to 400.
Grease a
baking pan (or use a preheated baking stone).
When the
oven is warm sprinkle the dough with the salt and soda then integrate the dry ingredients into the bread dough.
***Gluten will have formed, so try to combine the
ingredients evenly by folding and cutting them into the dough with your
fingers.
The dough
will be very acidic so the soda will immediately become active. Turn the dough
on to your baking pan and slice the top.
You can wash the top of the loaf with beaten egg white or water
then sprinkle on a topping.
Bake for
20-30 min (until a toothpick comes out clean)
