Heritage Einkorn Loaf with Crimson Raisins

Heritage Einkorn Loaf with Crimson Raisins
Servings: 12 slices
Prep Time20 minutes
Cook Time40 minutes
Total Time1 hour

Ingredients

  • 300 ml warm water
  • 1 heaped tsp yeast - dried active – I used the one for hand baking
  • 275 g strong white flour
  • 175 g einkorn flour
  • 1 vitamin C tablet - finely ground with a spoon of the flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbs oil – olive / rapeseed / hemp etc.
  • Generous handful raisins

Instructions

  • Pour the water into bowl, add the yeast and swirl to it is dissolved.  Add the other ingredients.
  • Knead with the dough hook attachment of your mixer on the lowest speed for about 4 minutes until a smooth stretchy dough has formed (if you knead by hand it will take longer).
  • Cover with cling film and leave in the fridge overnight. It should more than double in size.
  • In the morning turn out onto a floured board and gently knock the dough back.  Place in an oiled and floured 1lb loaf tin.  Leave somewhere warm until doubled in size again.
  • Place in a preheated oven at GM7 / 220C / 425F and bake for about 40 minutes.   For a crustier loaf place a small dish of water in the oven under the loaf.
  • When it is done it should turn out of the tin and sound hollow when tapped.  It always takes longer to bake than you think it will, so my general rule of thumb is that if you are unsure give it another 5 mins.
