Wheat-rye bread with kefir is a healthy and tasty bread. Kefir, which contains beneficial bacteria and yeast, has many health benefits. It is often used to make bread and other baked goods.
It is necessary
- - 4 cups wheat flour
- - 1 cup rye flour
- - 1 teaspoon yeast
- - 1 ¼ teaspoon salt
- - ¾ glasses of kefir
- - 300 ml of warm water
Instructions
Step 1
To prepare the dough in a mixer bowl, combine wheat and rye flour, add yeast and stir for a minute or two. Then add kefir, warm water, salt and continue stirring with your hands for 5 minutes. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes and knead again for another 5 minutes.
Step 2
Place the dough on a floured work surface and knead for a few minutes. Shape the dough into a ball, place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1-1½ hours.
Step 3
After the time has elapsed, when the dough rises in volume by 2 times, transfer it back to the work surface, knead thoroughly and shape it into the desired shape. Sprinkle flour over the dough, cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
Step 4
While the dough is resting, heat the oven to 200C. Using a sharp knife, make a longitudinal cut in the dough as shown in the photo and place it in a baking dish.
Step 5
Place a bowl of water on the bottom of the oven. This will provide the moisture needed and the bread will have a thick, crispy crust. Lower the oven temperature to 180 ° C and bake for 40 minutes.
Step 6
You can store such bread in a paper bag wrapped in a clean cotton cloth.
