Sturdy Sandwich Bread, originally printed in my cookbook, “The Plant Paradox Family Cookbook”

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup olive oil plus extra for greasing pan
  • 2 ½ cups millet flour divided, plus extra for kneading
  • 1 cup tapioca starch
  • ¼ cup arrowroot powder
  • ¾ cup ground golden flaxseed
  • ¼ cup psyllium husk flakes
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 large omega-3 or pasture-raised eggs beaten
  • 1 tablespoon raw local honey
  • 2 cups lukewarm water
  • 1 packet instant yeast

Method
 

  1. Prepare a 10x5-inch loaf pan by greasing with olive oil and lining it with parchment paper. Then set aside. 
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of the millet flour, the tapioca starch, arrowroot powder, flaxseed, psyllium, and salt.
  3. In a small bowl, add the eggs, 1/4 cup oil, honey, water, and yeast. Whisk until well combined. 
  4. Make a well in the dry mixture and pour the wet mixture into the center. Using a spatula, fold in the wet mixture until well combined.
  5. If dough feels too sticky, add the remaining millet flour, about 2 tablespoons at a time.
  6. Grease a large bowl with oil. Scrape the dough into the greased bowl and oil the surface of the dough. Cover lightly and set on the counter at a room temperature of about 70-72℉ until the dough has doubled.
  7. Knead well with a light dusting of flour. Preheat oven to 375℉ and rest dough for 30 min. Transfer to a greased pan and bake for 40-45 min.
  8. Allow to cool completely before slicing.
