Instructions
- Make the preferment 14–18 hours before mixing the dough. Leave out on counter.
- Mix the dough: Mix baking soda and salt into preferment. Knead in 1 to 2 cups of flour; stop adding flour as soon as dough is workable.
- Do a quick knead for 5 minutes. Do not add too much flour! This can be sloppy.
- Flour your work surface and roll out dough with a rolling pin until about ½ to ¾ inch thick.
- Cut out muffins with a cookie cutter or inverted glass; place on cornmeal-sprinkled parchment.
- Cover and keep somewhere warm; let rise for 1 hour – longer if they are not warm.
- Preheat frying pan on medium low. When you add butter it should sizzle.
- Butter your pan MINIMALLY.
- Cook muffins 4 minutes – down side should get brown.
- Flip muffins and depress SLIGHTLY if needed to flatten down side.
- Cook 4 minutes on other side.
- Adjust stove heat if muffins cook too fast/slow.

Sour Cream Bread
Ingredients
- 1 package active dry yeast
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons warm water (105–110 degrees)
- 16 ounces whole fat sour cream
- 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.

Lori’s Sprouted Wheat Bread
Ingredients
- 19 ounces sprouted red wheat flour
- 9 grams Celtic sea salt (1 ¾ teaspoon of this particular type of salt)
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 2 cups plus 1-2 tablespoons of lukewarm water to make a slightly sticky finished dough ball.
Servings:
Units:
Instructions
- I make the dough in a bread machine.
- Once all of the flour is incorporated in the bread machine I add 2 tablespoons of softened organic unsalted butter and let that mix in and let the dough knead, but take it out before it rises.
- I put the dough into an oiled bowl and flip it oiled side up.
- Cover with a piece of wax paper and then foil lightly enough so it can breathe.
- Let it rise in the refrigerator overnight which improves the texture dramatically.
- Then I bring it to room temperature, dump it out of the bowl onto a very lightly floured board, press it down gently to remove bubbles, then form it into a loaf by rolling it onto itself, pinching as I go.
- I place it in a greased 11 ¾ by 4 ½ inch loaf pan.
- Cover with a damp towel, let rise until 1 ¼” above the top of the pan, and bake at 375 degrees in a preheated oven until internal temp reaches 190 degrees, about 40 minutes at our high altitude.
- Amazing bread!
