Easy Brown Loaf

I've been totally addicted to baking my own bread. There's no 100% whole wheat bread sold at stores around here, so that was a very successful attempt.

Ingredients:

500g whole wheat flour mix
½ tsp salt
½ tsp coconut sugar
1 ½ tsp dry baker’s yeast
2 TBS olive oil
300ml warm water
Sesame seeds to sprinkle

Directions:

1. In a big bowl, mix all dry ingredients. Make a well in the middle. Set aside.

2. In a small bowl, mix oil and water. Slowly pour oil mixture into the well you made in dry ingredients and mix until it’s not gluey anymore.

3. Pour dough on a powdered surface and knead it for circa 10 minutes until it’s elastic and smooth.

4. Roll dough in an oval shape and let it rise/rest on a slightly greased baking tin covered with plastic wrap. Leave it for an hour somewhere warm until it doubles its size.

5. Pre-heat oven to 230°C. Optional: Spray some water on the top of the bread and the sesame seeds.

6. Bake for ca. 30 minutes. Let bread cool on rack before slicing.
