Believe us, with this ingenious Bake Affair baking mix you too will become a bread baker!

For a small loaf of brown farmer's bread (500 g) you need:

• 1 baking mix
• 210 ml of water

Resting time for the dough: a total of 105 - 120 minutes

Baking time: approx. 10 min at 230 ° C + approx. 20 min at 190 ° C (both top and bottom heat)

Instructions:

1. Open the freshness seal on the baking mix and pour the contents into a large bowl. Fill the can to the water line (210 ml) with lukewarm water and carefully pour it over the baking mixture. Knead the dough by hand or with a mixer for 3 minutes.
2. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise for approx. 45 - 60 minutes in a warm place (approx. 24 ° C).
3. Flour the work surface and, if you have one, your proving basket.
4. Place the dough on the work surface. Using a dough scraper, fold it in from the edges towards the center and shape it into a round ball. Place the ball of dough with the seam side down in the proofing basket or on a baking paper-lined baking sheet.
5. Dust the dough with a little flour and cover it again for about 60 minutes.
6. While the dough is rising, you can preheat the oven to 230 ° C (electric).
7. Place the dough on your baking sheet or on a baking stone. With a sharp knife, score the dough deep enough so that the steam can escape while baking. Of course, you can also use these cuts to carve a beautiful pattern into your bread.
8. Bake the bread for 10 minutes at 230 ° C. Then reduce the heat to 190 ° C and bake the bread for another 20 minutes. If the bottom of your bread turns brown, it's done!
9. Take out of the oven, let cool on a wire rack and enjoy!
