Whole Grain Brioche Two Ways
Ingredients:
- 8 cup Whole Grain Spelt Flour
- 2.5 tbsp Rapid Rise Yeast
- 4 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Olive Oil
- 4 Whole Eggs
- 1 tbsp Salt
- 4 tbsp Sugar
- 1 cup slided green pimento olives
Directions:
We grind our wheat berries fresh and used spelt for this bread.
For an extra fine flour we also place the ground wheat berries in the Vitamix for a minute.
Placing all of the ingredients in our Kitchen aid equipped with the dough hook, we added additional flour as necessary to come to a sticky dough.
We split the dough into two sections and braided one for a large ceramic pan and mixed a cup of sliced green olives and pimentos into the other. Let rise until doubled in size, 1-2 hours. Bake at 350° for about 45 minutes.
