Sweet Challah Spelt Flour Dough Recipe<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The health benefit of whole grains, reduced gluten,
\nand delicious challah. It’s easy to mix in the bread machine
\non the dough cycle. This dough was wonderful to work with.
\nThe picture is beautiful challah made by me using this recipe.
\nIt looks like something out of a magazine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Divide up the mound of dough according to
\nwhat size loaves you desire. This recipe will make
\none very large family size loaf (about 8 slices)
\nor half that or 1\/3 of that.<\/span><\/p>\n

You need to know that this dough <\/span>wants to spread
\nand flatten. So I <\/span>keep it firm but flexible, not too wet.<\/span>
\nIt also helps to make your braids in <\/span>parchment-lined
\nloaf pans, rather than laying them on cookie sheets.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can try making it totally gluten free by changing<\/span>
\nthe flour to 2-1\/3 cups of oat flour and 1-1\/3 cups tapioca<\/span>
\nstarch\/flour. It should work as well but I haven’t had a<\/span>
\nchance to try it.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

INGREDIENTS\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3\u20444 cup water<\/span><\/p>\n

2 eggs\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

1\u20443 cup oil<\/span><\/p>\n

1 teaspoon salt<\/span><\/p>\n

1\u20442 cup raw or coconut sugar<\/span><\/p>\n

3 2\u20443 cups spelt flour<\/span><\/p>\n

4 teaspoons instant yeast<\/span><\/p>\n

1 tbs. ground flax seeds (optional)<\/span><\/p>\n

raisins (optional).<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

DIRECTIONS<\/span>
\n
\nPut the ingredients into your bread machine in
\nthe order recommended by the manufacturer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Select ‘dough cycle’.<\/span>
\nIn my bread machine, I am able to add in raisins
\nafter the first mixing – it beeps. Check your machine <\/span>
\nfor directions on adding optional ingredients in after
\nstarting\u00a0the dough cycle.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

When taking out dough, if too sticky, roll in a
\nthin dusting of rice flour to\u00a0ease shaping.
\nBe careful to keep dough moist. Use\u00a0only enough
\nrice flour to make your dough strands.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Braid loaves and place in parchment-lined baking
\npan (or 8″ x 4″ loaf pans).<\/span><\/p>\n

Cover with oiled plastic wrap and let rise for<\/span>
\n40 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s a picture of what I created from these ingredients.<\/span>
\nFour small challahs for two plus 4 small rolls.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I brush my loaves with water and place a giant<\/span>
\nbowl\u00a0of hot water on a rack under the rising<\/span>
\ndough. (I leave the hot water in while I bake).<\/span><\/p>\n

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want them to shine, brush with a beaten egg<\/span>
\nand a tbs. of water just before baking. I did not do this<\/span>
\nand they are beautiful as you can see in the picture.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
\nCoat top with egg yolk and sprinkle with poppy or
\nsesame seeds, if desired.<\/span><\/p>\n

Approximate bake times:
\nCheck for doneness.
\nOne large challah 45 minutes.
\nTwo smaller challahs -35 minutes.
\nThree small challahs – 20 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n
