Links and recipes below. EINKORN BREAD RECIPE INGREDIENTS
600g of Einkorn whole wheat finely ground (approx. 4 ¾ cups)
345g Water 1½ cups (I increased the water by 9g to keep it moist)
2 TBS Honey (1 TBS works well)
2 TBS Olive Oil
1½ tsp. Salt
1½ tsp. Yeast
DIRECTIONS Mix flour and salt together. Dissolve honey in warm water, add oil, and sprinkle yeast on top of the mixture. Let rest 5 minutes, or until it begins to foam up. Stir liquid into flour until all flour is incorporated; don’t knead, and set aside for 30 minutes, covering with plastic wrap or lid. (Use enough water to keep the dough sticky during this rise; einkorn flour with absorb the liquid).
Pour out the dough on a floured surface dusted with flour and stretch out to about 1 inch thickness, (no need to knead!) adding only enough flour to keep from sticking to board and hands. Fold in the four sides, much like folding a sheet of paper. Fold half the dough to the center, then fold the other half to meet it. Do the same in the other direction. Place folded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, and cover; let rest for 15 minutes.
Stretch and fold for the second time; let rest for 15 minutes covered. Stretch and fold for the third time, and shape dough into an 8-inch loaf. Make certain to crimp the edges where the folds are, so the bread doesn’t split while cooking. Place into an oiled loaf pan and let rise for 20-30 minutes—brush olive oil on top of the loaf for a beautiful crust.
