Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pound loaf
  • 1 ¾ cups Sourdough starter
  • ¼ cup warm water I rinse my sourdough cup with 1/4 cup warm water and use that
  • 2 TBS Molasses or Honey
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour (I use Einkorn Flour) If you use all-purpose flour, cut the liquid back to 1 1/8 cup starter and 1/8 cup water. Choose the sourdough setting on your bread machine
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (I use Einkorn)
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp active dry yeast (OPTIONAL for faster rise)
  • 2 TBS unsalted butter cut into pieces and placed in corners and sides of pan

Instructions

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Add the ingredients to your bread machine in the exact order listed
  • Set your machine to the whole wheat setting. Choose your loaf color setting and hit start.
  • When done, remove from machine and let the loaf cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from pan and place loaf on cooling rack. Wait at least 15 minutes before slicing – if you can.

Notes

  1. Add the ingredients in the order listed
  2. I set my machine on Whole Wheat, Medium or Dark (just depends on how I feel) since I use whole wheat flour.
  3. If you use all-purpose flour choose the sourdough setting on your bread machine.  
  4. If you don't use whole grain flour, cut the liquid back to 1 1/8 cup starter and 1/8 cup water and use the appropriate setting on your machine
  5. You can use any flour you like
