Super Simple Spelt Bread- Veggie and Vegan Friendly

Good Morning Lovelies,

I love Spelt bread!! It is healthy, filling slices of deliciousness! I made one loaf to trial at a coffee morning and I have been inundated with orders since. So I have decided to share the recipe with all of you. :) The recipe isn't vegan but I have added in the alternatives for the lovely Vegans. I use all organic ingredients in my bread but you can use the ingredients that best suit your budget.

Ingredients: 
485g of Wholegrain Spelt Flour
30g of Sesame Seeds
30g of Poppy Seeds
30g of Sunflower Seeds
5g of Baking Soda
1 Tablespoon of Blackstrap Molasses
505ml of Milk (Rice Milk or Water is the Vegan alternative)

Instructions: 

Heat your oven to 180 degrees
Grab all of your dry ingredients and mix them all together in a big bowl.
Pour in the Milk (or alternative) and stir until all the dry mix isn't dry anymore.
Spoon in the Molasses and stir through. Give it a good stir so you don't end up with molasses blobs in your bread.
Pour the mix into a silicone bread tin and put it in the oven.
After its been in the oven about 10mins get a knife and draw a line down the center of the bread.
Leave to bake for about 45mins.
Remove from tin immediately and leave to cool on a wire rack

Additional Notes 
I use a silicone mold because I like to take the bread out after 45 mins and turn it upside down in the tin to ensure the bottom is baked the same colour as the top.
Stick a knife into the middle of your loaf when you think it is baked. If it comes out clean your bread is done if not put it back in the oven for another 15 mins repeat until the knife comes out clean.
You can use any seed combinations you like for your bread. Be inventive - make sure you share your combinations :)
If you like a softer crust on your bread wait until the bread is cold and wrap it in cling film.
This bread is suitable for home freezing.

Happy Baking 
XOXO
