Delicious & Easy to Make Sprouted Sandwich Bread
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm whole fat milk
- 1 tablespoon organic sugar
- 6 tablespoons organic butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 packet active dry yeast (or 2 1/2 teaspoons)
- 2 large organic eggs
- 4 cups (gluten-containing) sprouted flour of choice
- olive oil for bowl
Servings: slices
Units:
Instructions
- Combine the milk, sugar, butter, salt, and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the hook attachment and mix to combine well.
- Add the eggs and mix until well blended.
- Add the flour and mix until the dough pulls together well (not more than 1 minute). NOTE: It’s important not to over mix sprouted flour or the gluten bonds that form quickly will break down and your dough won’t rise.
- Flour your hands and remove the dough from the mixer. Stretch and fold it inward 3-4 times in your hands. Place back into bowl that has been greased with olive oil. Flip to coat both sides and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to rise in a warm spot until doubled in size. About 1-1 ½ hours.
- Generously grease a loaf pan with soft butter. Punch down dough slightly, then lift out of bowl. Stretch and fold dough inward 3-4 times in your hands, shaping it for your loaf pan. Place in pan, cover with plastic wrap and let rise again. About 1 hour.
- Place loaf pan in preheated 375-degree oven and bake for about 30 minutes being careful not to burn top. Remove from oven and let bread sit for 10 minutes before removing from pan to wire rack to cool completely.
- Slices beautifully and makes great sandwich bread and toast.

Super Easy Beignets
Ingredients
- 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1.12 cups warm water about 110°F)
- 0.5 cup organic sugar
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 eggs preferably organic or pastured
- 1 cup Organic evaporated milk
- 6 cups sprouted white wheat flour plus more for rolling dough
- 0.25 cup naturally rendered lard melted
- 1 quart coconut oil, avocado oil, beef tallow, or lard for frying
- Organic confectioner’s sugar for dusting
Servings:
Units:
Instructions
- In a large bowl dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sugar, salt, eggs, evaporated milk. Blend well (I use my stand mixer). Mix in 4 cups of the flour and beat until smooth.
- Add the shortening and remaining 2 cups of flour*. You can cover and chill the dough from here if you want to fry it up later.
- Generously flour counter. Roll out dough 1/8-inch thick. Cut into 2 1/2-inch squares using a pizza wheel. Fry in 360° hot oil. Beignets will pop up quickly. Turn to brown both sides, about 30 seconds to 1 minute per side. Only fry a few at a time to keep your oil hot. Drain on paper towels.
- Dust generously with confectioner’s sugar or place hot beignets in a zip lock filled with sugar and shake well to coat. Serve warm. Heavenly!
- *You should only need 6 cups of sprouted flour, depending on how shaggy your dough is after adding the 6th cup. I add 6 cups then refrigerate the dough. It is always just right the next morning and I use a generous amount of flour on my rolling surface to perfect the dough.

Sour Cream Bread
Ingredients
- 1 package active dry yeast
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons warm water (105–110 degrees)

- 1 tablespoon Celtic salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 4 cups sprouted red wheat flour
Servings:
Units:
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water in a small mixing bowl; let stand 5 minutes or until bubbly.
- Combine sour cream, salt, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl; add the yeast mixture, mixing well.
- Gradually add flour and mix well.
- Turn dough out on a lightly floured surface and knead about 2 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Shape into a ball; place in a greased bowl, turning to grease top.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees), for about 1 ½ hours or until doubled in bulk.
- Punch dough down and divide in half.
- Place each half in a buttered 9x5x3" loaf pan.
- Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 35–40 minutes. NOTE: I like to preheat my oven to 450 degrees for 1 hour. Immediately upon placing dough pans in oven I turn it off and turn it back on at 375 degrees. Helps ensure a wonderfully chewy crust.
Recipe Notes
I preheat my oven at 400 degrees for one hour. Immediately upon placing loaves in oven I reset oven to 375 degrees.
