Ingredients
2½CupsFlourI used white Spelt flour
1CupCheese Parmesan or any hard cheese, shredded on a fine grater
4-5Green onions Finely chopped
250mlWarm water
1x7g sachetDried yeast
1tspHoney Or Maple syrup, 100% pure
1tspSalt
1tbspOlive oilTo grease the loaf tin
Instructions
You can either use a dough hook on your food mixer or make this by hand
In a large bowl add the flour, yeast and salt and combine
In a jug measure out the warm water and add the honey, then stir to combine the two
Make a well in the flour mixture and then gradually add the warm water and honey, I do this in about 3-4 goes, and either mix with the mixer hook or use a wooden spoon to combine
If making this by hand, flour a work surface and start kneading the dough
Keep kneading until you have a very smooth elastic loking dough and then add the cheese and green onions and knead again until they're fully incorporated into the dough
Make the dough into a ball shape
Proofing The Dough
In a large clean bowl, add a tsp of Olive oil and grease the sides
Add the dough to the bowl and cover either with food wrap or a clean tea towel and leave it somewhere warm to proof for at least 2 hours until it's well risen
Grease your loaf tin
Turn your risen dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it again briefly for about 2 minutes, then tuck in into an oblong shape and put it in the greased loaf tin
Put the tin back somewhere warm for another hour or so to rise again. It will rise much quicker this time
To Cook The Bread
Heat up your oven to 210C or 410F depending on your oven
Bake the bread for 40 minutes until it's risen and golden on top
Turn out onto a wire rack and allow to cool down for at least 30 minutes before eating it!
