I was in Grocery Outlet and noticed that they had some Bob’s Red Mill products. It was a lucky day for me as I love Bob’s products and I love a bargain!

People who aren’t familiar with making bread will pass on items like spelt flour or rye flour when they see them in the grocery store. They’re just not sure how to use them.

However, the savvy bread maker will scoop up these specialty items and incorporate them into their bread. They know that these recipes are great and that using specialty flours can help stretch their supply of regular bread flour.

Talk about ancient grains, spelt was an important part of people’s diets in the Bronze Age! It’s mentioned in the bible. It also has a place in Greek mythology, as spelt was a gift to the Greeks from the goddess Demeter.

Spelt is a cereal grain in the wheat family. Some people may find spelt flour easier to digest than regular wheat flour.

If the dough is too dry add liquid a teaspoon at a time until it looks right. If it looks too wet, add flour a tablespoon at a time until it looks good.

We really liked this spelt bread recipe. The crust of the bread was crisp and hard. However, the bread itself was soft. Spelt bread is delightfully hearty!

This homemade spelt sandwich bread has a wonderful crusty exterior and a soft, chewy center…just as a sandwich bread should be. Perfect for sandwiches or my favorite, toast! I love bread that is toasted the most, always have. It is so good with some almond butter, or  hummus, or even some melted coconut butter. My favorite though is always avocado toast. YUM.

I’ve tried a billion breads out there from the stores. Some are good, most aren’t that great. A lot of them have so many nasty preservatives, chemicals and dough conditioners to keep them soft. So, while homemade bread goes stale quicker, at least you get that fresh homemade taste and can actually feel good about eating homemade bread. I have made many loaves to stock up and now keep a lot of them in my freezer (pre-sliced) so they last longer. I just grab a piece and toast them up when I want a snack. SO GOOD.

I mean, come on, look at that perfect texture. And can you believe that this vegan spelt bread is only 5 ingredients (+ salt & water). How freaking simple is that??

Since spelt can taste rather earthy or even slightly bitter, it is necessary to use a good touch of maple syrup here, more than you would for regular white flour.

The smell of homemade bread is just so amazing and addicting. I remember my Mom making it a lot when I was in high school, but she used a bread machine that my Dad had bought her. The taste was delicious and so fresh. I love to knead the dough though…I love every part of baking, every step….well, except for cleaning up all the dang dishes.

Making this vegan whole grain spelt sandwich bread is much easier than it looks. I understand how bread making can intimidate people. This step-by-step tutorial will make it easy for you. You literally dump everything into a bowl, give it a good stir and knead for a few minutes and then let it rise. Then you just form it into a loaf shape and let it rise one more time and then bake. Super easy. Most of it is not hands-on time, so it’s very easy. The key is following the directions.

Spelt Egg Bread

Every flour performs differently, and this recipe I wrote based on the nature of spelt flour alone. Spelt doesn’t perform the same way as wheat or all-purpose flour, so you can’t just sub and expect the same results. There is less gluten in spelt, so it is more tender and requires less kneading, yet enough to make it elastic. It also holds a bit more moisture. While it took me a few tries to get it right, I was determined to use spelt and not any other flour.

Can we all just get a load of that glorious rise on that bread?? After my first couple of trials failed, I was dancing around the kitchen with joy with how this one turned out. This loaf surprisingly only took me 3 trials to nail the final perfect loaf. 3rd time was in fact, a charm. I have never made a loaf before with spelt, only regular all-purpose flour, so it was a bit more challenging.

I learned really quickly what errors I made. My first loaf I simply added too much water, so the dough rose so high (because of so much moisture) because the yeast reacts off of the moisture and it basically exploded and deflated in my oven, lol. This is what can happen if you have too much water or let it rise too much…deflated city…

Not very pretty, huh? It was still edible though. Wasn’t a waste. I just toasted it up and voila. I ultimately found success though with the perfect loaf, as you can see.

So, to make things as simple for you as possible, I’m including pics as well for the steps. This helped many of you successfully make my Apple Hand Pies, so I figured this was important for the bread. These are just brief pics and details, see the FULL directions below on the print-out and follow them.

Add all of your ingredients to a bowl (see full directions in print-out below). Stir and press the dough using the spatula until all the flour is mixed in, a couple of minutes. It will look really chunky like this as first. Once, all the flour is mixed in, knead a bit inside the bowl with your hands. If it it too sticky to handle, sprinkle another tablespoon of flour or so on the top and flip the dough over and knead a bit more with the spatula, pressing and gathering over several times. Only add as little as needed, as you don’t want to dry out the dough and end up with dry bread.

If for some reason after continually mixing it seems too dry and is not becoming cohesive, add just a tiny bit of water, starting with a teaspoon just so it comes together. You don’t want it too dry to where it’s not holding together.

Form a ball, using the spatula if necessary to help. It should be elastic and a bit stretchy after 5 minutes and slightly sticky. Test it by pressing down with your spatula/spoon and dragging the dough a bit…you should see it stretch and slowly return back to it’s position. Then it’s done.
