Instructions for the delicious wholemeal bread recipe

First put whole wheat flour, yeast, honey, salt and warm water in a mixing bowl and knead for about 5 minutes. Now cover mixing bowl with a clean dry towel and let rise in a warm place for an hour.

Melt butter and allow to cool slightly before now adding it to the dough and lightly mixing it in. Grease loaf pan and now pour in spelt bread dough and let rise again until oven is preheated (10-30 minutes depending on how much the bread has re-collapsed from the butter).

Brush bread lightly with butter if desired and sprinkle with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds, for example. Now place an ovenproof dish with water in the oven – alternatively fill the cake tray with about 250ml of water.

Bake bread for about 25-30 minutes at 220 degrees (top/bottom heat) – be careful when opening the oven, as a hot cloud of steam escapes each time. The water keeps the bread nice and moist.

Spelt bread recipe – whole wheat or sweet brioche

We wanted a whole wheat bread to pair with our sweet Brioche, and it’s hard to decide which bread to eat at breakfast when both types are on the table.

On the one hand, we often now also use healthier 630 spelt flour instead of wheat flour in our mare bread recipes and notice the difference positively in the compatibility, but with tart whole wheat flour for spelt bread you have to be a bit more careful to find the perfect bread recipe in this case.

Bake healthy bread yourself – wholemeal spelt bread recipe

Sometimes we are amazed at how simple the ingredients are and how quickly this bread is baked. However, it doesn’t rise very high and tends to stay in the shape you put it in at the end. The baguette versions of this spelt bread are also super tasty.

In the meantime, we have found our perfect bread variant and have often had the query about the delicious bread recipe during our breakfast visit. It is quite simple and quickly prepared without many ingredients or extreme effort and therefore always made quickly the night before.

If you want you can add grains and seeds to the bread dough, such as sunflower seeds, however, the whole wheat bread tastes best to us when it is quite tender from the inside. The bread smells extremely delicious and tastes like the perfect mixture that is healthy and tasty.

Whole grain bread recipe – simple, fast, delicious
Our favorite and best whole grain bread recipe for a dark bread with rye flour and spelt whole wheat flour. Simple, fast and deliciously juicy to a crispy crust is my recipe for dark wholemeal bread. The wholemeal bread recipe is also suitable as a dark baguette and is also often called walnut bread in our country, when we bake the dark bread with walnuts.
Also try our whole grain bread…

We like whole spelt bread recipe best with acacia honey or forest honey in the bread dough, as both types are very liquid and mix extremely well with the bread.
