Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Whole wheat bread flour
- 20 grams Vital wheat gluten
- 40 grams Pea protein powder
- 7 grams Instant yeast
- 10 grams Sugar
- 5 grams Salt
- 15 grams Curry powder
- 250 ml Warm water
- 30 ml Olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat bread flour, vital wheat gluten, pea protein powder, instant yeast, sugar, salt, and curry powder. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or in a stand mixer with a dough hook until a sticky dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough by hand for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. If using a stand mixer, knead the dough with the dough hook for about 7 minutes on medium speed.
Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl, turning the dough to coat it with a thin layer of oil.
Cover the bowl with a damp cloth or plastic wrap. Let it rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes, or until the dough has doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air pockets. Transfer it back to the floured surface and gently shape it into a loaf by flattening the dough into a rectangle, then rolling it tightly.
Place the shaped loaf into a greased loaf pan, cover with a cloth, and let it rise again for about 20-30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) during the second rise.
Bake the loaf in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
