Malted sourdough loaf
Malted sourdough loaf
Malted sourdough loaf is a type of bread made with sourdough starter and malted flour. The malted flour adds a slightly sweet and nutty flavor to the bread, as well as a rich brown color. The sourdough starter gives the bread a tangy flavor and helps it rise naturally. It’s a delicious and flavorful bread that is great for sandwiches, toast, or just enjoying on its own.
Ingredients
Method
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, whole wheat flour, malted flour, and salt.
- Add the sourdough starter and lukewarm water to the flour mixture. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10-15 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough back in the bowl and cover with a damp towel. Let it rest at room temperature for 3-4 hours, folding the dough every hour.
- After the bulk fermentation, shape the dough into a loaf and place it in a floured proofing basket.
- Cover the loaf with a towel and let it proof at room temperature for 2-3 hours or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) with a Dutch oven or baking stone inside.
- Once the oven is hot, carefully transfer the loaf into the preheated Dutch oven or onto the baking stone.
- Bake the loaf covered for 20 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and enjoying!
