Chia Flour Bread

INGREDIENTS

• 3 ½ cups (400 g) wheat flour
• 1 cup (100 g) SOW Chia Flour
• 3 ½ teaspoons (10g) dry yeast
• ½ tablespoon sugar
• 1 ½ tablespoons salt
• 1/2 cup warm water
• 1/2 cup (100 ml) sunflower oil
• 1 egg, beaten
• Optional: 1/4 cup SOW Black Chia Seeds

 

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 350 °F and grease a loaf pan with butter or oil.
2. Sift wheat flour and chia flour into a large bowl. Add the dry yeast, sugar, salt and mix all dry ingredients.
3. Make a space in the center of the dry mixture, add the sunflower oil and mix. Continue kneading while adding, little by little, ½ cup of warm water until all ingredients are incorporated and a homogeneous dough is formed, about 5 minutes.
4. Once the dough is ready, brush it with a little oil (so no crust is produced), cover with a cloth and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
5. Knead dough again and then place in loaf pan.
6. Brush dough with the beaten egg. Optional: sprinkle black chia seeds on top.
7. Let the dough rest for another 10 to 15 minutes then bake for 45 to 50 minutes.
