Hey foodies!
For this week's steemit culinary challenge I thought my recipe for Walnut Rosemary Honey Wholemeal Bread would perfectly fit as delicious bread. Everybody loves it! It tastes incredible with some butter spread on top.
What I love about this bread is that is whole grain but at the same time so moist and soft. Whole grain bread is so much better for you - I could go on and on about it. But some whole grain breads are dry and really not that appetizing for me. That is why I am so in love with this recipe. Additionally, the flavour combo of walnut and rosemary is so awesome. It goes so well together. The honey coats the roasted walnuts in a way as if it is some sort of candy. So, if you bite into a piece of bread you have that little bit of crunch. And in my opinion, food is not only a matter of taste but also of texture.
If you are a vegan you can simply leave out the honey or replace it with any vegan liquid sweetener. I personally love to subtly sweet flavour the honey gives this bread. So, I really recommend it to use some sort of sweetener in this recipe.
I want to shout out a big thank you to @woman-onthe-wing for hosting this awesome challenge and this week's host @jaymorebeet for coming up with this great theme for this week!
Walnut Rosemary Honey Wholemeal Bread
Ingredients
- 500 g wholemeal flour
- 1 package of dried yeast
- 330 g warm water
- 125 g walnuts
- 1 tbsp rosemary, dried
- 2 tbsp honey
- pinch of salt
Directions
Put water, yeast and flour into a bowl. I used my handy breadmaker and put all in the baking dish.
Chop up walnuts.
Roast chopped walnuts and rosemary with a pinch of salt in a pan.
Add honey to the pan.
Add roasted walnuts, rosemary and honey to the bread mix.
Create a dough and kneed it. Or leave the hard work to a breadmaker.
Let it rest for an hour. My breadmaker did this for me.
Put the dough into a baking dish (or form a loaf and place on baking tray lined with baking sheets). Let it rise there for another half an hour. Bake at 200 °C for about 45 minutes. My breadmaker is a pro when it comes to baking bread and did this also for me. The result is amazing. I highly recommend to invest into a breadmaker when you want to bake bread often.
Enjoy!
