A wonderful flavour and texture by using very strong wholemeal and very strong white bread flours.

Method

  1. Put the flours, salt and yeast into a bowl.

  2. Mix to a soft dough with the honey, oil and water.

  3. Turn onto a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes.

  4. Shape and put into an appropriate greased tin.

  5. Leave to prove in a warm place slowly until doubled in size.

  6. Add your chosen topping/glaze if using and place in an oven preheated to 220°C (425°F, gas mark 7) and immediately turn the heat down to 200°C (400°F, gas mark 6). Bake for 25-30 minutes. When cooked the loaf should sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

    Makes a delicious and extremely moreish loaf of bread. However, the dough is very difficult to work with as it’s very dry. Should the amount of water have been 325ml and not 225ml as shown in the ingredients list?
