Healthy Homemade Bread

It is believed that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It should be the most healthy and nutritious meal of the day. I feel upset when I fail to feed a healthy breakfast to my family. Since there is a lockdown due to corona virus outbreak, the resources for us are limited. It is difficult for us to even fetch our daily needs. I have a solution for you. Why not make your own bread at home? This bread has a good golden crust, is extremely soft and just look at the colour on the sides.

INGREDIENTS

Whole Wheat Flour - 300g
All purpose flour - 150g
Sugar - according to taste (2 tbsp)
Salt - 1 tsp
Instant Yeast - 2 tsp
Fresh Cream - 3 tbsp
Milk - 120 ml
Water - 150 ml
Butter - 2 tbsp

PROCEDURE

Take 60 ml lukewarm water. Mix with instant yeast.

Add sugar.

Add salt and leave for 10 minutes

Add 60 ml water in milk and heat until it is lukewarm.

Sieve both the flours twice and mix them.

Pour the mixture into milk and dissolve.

Pour the milk into the flour gradually and start kneading.

This should be softer than your regular dough.

Leave this dough in a warm place for 2 hours for fermentation,

After 2 hours, the dough will rise double in size.

Now add little bit of butter.

Dust your workplace with little flour and transfer the dough. Punch the dough to soften it.

Shape the dough like a loaf of bread. Meanwhile preheat the oven on 180 degrees for 10 minutes.

NOTE: To check the doneness of the dough, slightly press the dough with your fingers. If the dough bounces back and the impression disappears, then it is ready to be put in the oven. If not, you need to beat it more. In case it starts to loosen, you need to add some more flour.
