Sprouted Spelt Dough Option
Ingredients
- 4 cups sprouted Spelt flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup lukewarm water
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast or active dry yeast (*see note about yeast)
Instructions
- Mix and knead together all of the ingredients — by hand, mixer, or bread machine — until the soft dough forms a nice ball. If you're using a stand mixer, using the dough attachment, mix at low speed for 6 to 8 minutes.
Notes
Spelt contains more protein than modern wheat, and the protein is easier for a lot of people to digest. This means that some people who are allergic to wheat may be able to tolerate it. It has gluten, just like wheat, so it is not suitable for a gluten-free diet.
A note about yeast. Active dry yeast should be dissolved in water before using. Instant yeast can be mixed right into your dry ingredients. Using bread machine yeast means you have to give the dough two rises before baking. If that's all you have you can let the second rise be after the burgers are wrapped.
