Ingredients

  • 450g/3 & 5/8 cups spelt flour (you can also use standard bread flour)
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • ½ sachet fast action dried yeast
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 400-450ml/1¾ cups lukewarm water
  • 2 tbsp seeds for topping, eg sesame

Instructions

  1. Mix together the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the middle with a wooden spoon.
  2. Mix in the water and oil and stir to form a smooth, wet dough.
  3. Spoon the wet dough mix into a well-oiled bread tin. Top with seeds.
  4. Preheat your oven to 220ºC (fan)/430ºF/Gas Mark 7.
  5. Cover the dough and set it aside somewhere warm to rise. The bread won’t rise a lot, usually just reaching the top rim of the tin.
  6. Bake for 25-30 mins. Remove from tin. The loaf should sound hollow when tapped. If it doesn’t, return to the oven for a few minutes, out of the tin.
  7. Cool on a wire rack.

Did you know that the Vegan Recipe Club is run by Viva!, and that we are a charity?

We create vital resources to help educate everyone – vegan veterans, novices and the v-curious alike – about vegan food, health and nutrition; as well as the plight of farmed animals and the devastating environmental impact of farming.

Through this work we have helped thousands of people discover veganism; but we want to reach millions more! We rely entirely on donations as we don’t get any government funding. If you already support us, thank you from the bottom of our hearts, you are really making a difference! Please share our details with your friends and loved ones too, as every donation enables us to keep fighting for change.
