Hearty Rye Bread
April 28, 2016
Hearty Rye Bread is a great bread for seed lovers and so simple to make! The sticky dough is packed with seeds and therefore the bread is heavy and dense. Just the way I like it!
2 breads
2 breads
First day
3 dl (300 g) lukewarm water
3 dl rye flour
Combine the starter, water and flour in a mixing bowl. Cover with a tea towel and leave at room temperature (22–24°C) overnight.
Second day
2,5 dl (250 g) whole spelt grains
water
2 dl (200 g) lukewarm water
0,5 dl (70 g) honey
2 tsp salt
1 tsp instant coffee granules
2 tbsp malt extract
2 tsp salt
1 tsp instant coffee granules
2 tbsp malt extract
1 dl (65 g) linseeds (flaxseeds)
2 dl (200 g) sunflower seeds
2 dl (130 g) wheat flour
4 dl (220 g) rye flour
Put the spelt grains in a pan with water, bring it to a boil, then simmer for 15 minutes. Pour out the water. Set aside to cool.
Stir 2 dl lukewarm water, honey, salt, instant coffee granules, malt extract, seeds and spelt grains into the starter dough. Mix in 2 dl wheat flour. Stir briskly for 5 minutes. Add the rye flour and stir the sticky dough another 5 minutes.
Cover the bowl and set in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled in size, 3 to 5 hours.

Cover the bowl and set in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled in size, 3 to 5 hours.
Pour the wet mixture into two greased 2-liter tins. Cover and let rise for about 1 hour 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 175°C. Bake for 1 hour 30 minutes.
Take the breads out of the oven, but leave them in the tins for 10 minutes. Remove the breads from the tins and let cool on a wire rack. When cooled, wrap the breads tightly and leave at room temperature overnight until you slice them.
Hearty Rye Bread stores well. You can also freeze it.
