Crusty Bread Baking Tips for Best Results

  1. Mixing Times
  • Play around with mixing times – using the whisk and not the dough hook, mix fast on for a few minutes changes the consistency of the batter.  Try mixxing differently and see what works best for your needs
  • If the batter is very soft you don’t want to mix long on high speed, here you want to mix gently until its just combined
  1. Underdone Bread
  • If the bread is underdone, reduce the baking temperature and bake for longer. If the crust gets too dark, then you can place foil over the loaf for the last 10 – 15 minutes of baking.
  • Bake in a smaller loaf pan
  1. Crumbly Bread
  • Add a little more liquid/oil
  • Slice only when its cold
  • Adding Nuts, Seeds, Dried Fruit, Nut Flour, Olives, all add to the texture and taste
  1. Adding Yeast
  • Yeast adds a lovely flavour, but it doesn’t result in the same rising that you get when baking with gluten. The crusty bread mix has baking powder to assist the rising
  1. Use Buttermilk instead of water
  • Buttermilk gives a lighter texture to the bread
  1. Freeze bread that is left over
  • Slice and freeze leftover bread

Puffed Millet and Date Balls

Makes around 30 balls

Preparation:  25 minutes to prepare no baking.

Ingredients

250gPitted Dates
100gBoiling Water (if necessary – see recipe below)
80gButter or Coconut Oil (for Vegan)
3 cups, 60gPuffed millet (can use other puffed grains)

1.4 tspCardamom, ground

Chop the dates and then pulse them in a food processor. If the dates remain chunky, then soak them in boiling water and pulse again to form a paste.  If they form a paste first time you pulse it, then soaking is not necessary. Pulse to a paste.

Melt the butter or coconut oil in a pan, add the cardamom. Add the dates and mix well.

Add the Puffed Millet and nuts to the mixture and mix well.

Transfer to a bowl, allow to cool enough to handle.

Working with slightly wet hands, pinch of pieces of date mix and roll into balls of around 3cm diameter.

Sourdough Flatbread (or just use Yeast)

This is a fantastic gluten-free recipe for baking a sourdough flatbread which makes a delicious snack or bread. Enjoy on its own or with your favourite topping or dipping.  Try serving as a starter topped with chopped rosa tomatoes, sprinkling of salt and pepper.

Makes 18 flat breads

Preparation:  the sourdough takes about a week to make, but use a sachet of yeast if you want the faster version.

10 minutes to prepare, and up to 1- 2h to prove and 5 minutes to bake.

Add the liquids to the bowl and mix on high speed for 2 – 3 minutes until the consistency of a thick paste is achieved.

Allow the dough to rest for 1 – 2 hours, it will rise but not as much as a wheat based culture.

Preheat the oven to 220°C. 

Brush parchment paper with olive oil and then with a ladle drop and smear the batter into round shapes of about 10 cm diameter.  Top with a sprinkling of your choice of seeds, herbs, spices and salt.

Delicious on its own or topped with Avocado or Hummus, or fresh tomato, salt and black pepper.

Crusty Bread

This crusty bread just works well.  I use soda water to assist in the raising of the dough to make it less dense.  It slices well, spreads well, and tastes great.  Aside from the proving time and the baking time, its quick and easy.  The dough that is formed is soft and easy to work with.

Preparation:  10 minutes to prepare, 30 – 60 min to prove and 30 – 40 min to bake.

Ingredients

600g (4 cups)Entice Pizza Mix
300g (300ml)Water or Soda Water
2XL Eggs
45 ml (3Tbs)Olive Oil
15ml (1Tbs)Honey (optional)
1Sachet yeast
30ml (2Tbs)Baking Powder (Gluten-Free)

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C to reach temperature when you need to bake.

Blend the powder yeast and baking powder to the dry Pizza Mix.

Mix the oil, eggs and water, add to the dry ingredients and combine to form a soft dough.

Place onto a floured board (use Entice Pizza Mix to flour) and gently form into a round shape.

Pour some olive oil into your hand and work over the surface of the loaf.

Place onto an oiled baking sheet. Leave to prove for 30 to 60 minutes in a warm area.  I use the oven warmer.

Once risen, gently egg wash the loaf.

Place into oven at 180°C and bake  30 – 40 minutes, you want the internal temperature of the loaf to reach about 92°C

Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Can be sliced while warm.

Can be sliced and frozen.

Marvelous Malva Pudding

Serves 6 – 8 people,  Preparation:  10 minutes to prepare and up to 1h 10 min to bake.

Ingredients
250ml (1 cup)Milk
1 Tbs (15g)Butter
1 TbsSmooth Apricot Jam
1XL egg
1/2 cup (125ml)sugar
15 mlApple cider vinegar
250ml (1 cup)Entice Self Raising Rice Flour
Syrup 
250 ml (1 cup)Cream
80ml (1/3 cup)Milk
100ml (100g)Butter
150ml (1/2 cup)Sugar
Preheat the oven to 160degC

Melt the butter, milk and apricot jam over low heat, or in the microwave.

Beat the egg and sugar in a bowl which is standing in hot water (helps dissolve the sugar) until light and fluffy.

Add vinegar to the milk – it curdles it, and quickly add the flour, giving it a quick whisk to combine.

Then add the milk/flour mix to the egg mix, and fold to combine.

Pour into a greased oven dish of 1- 1.5l capacity. Bake for 45 min to an hour until brown and dry.

Combine the syrup ingredients and allow to simmer for a few minutes on the stove top.

Prick the Malva pudding all over with a fork for the syrup to seep into.

Pour the hot syrup over the pudding and return to the oven for 10 minutes.

Enjoy on its own or serve with a good quality vanilla ice cream
