Bread Mixture
250 g PureSpelt white flour
200 g PureSpelt whole grain flour (Vollkornmehl)
75 g PureSpelt flakes or rolled oats
50 g ground hazelnuts
50 g seeds, e.g. pumpkin seeds
25 g sesame seeds, black or white
2 tsp salt

100 g plain yogurt
approx. 300 ml water
a little PureSpelt white flour for forming
some pumpkin seeds for garnish
1
Using a funnel, pour the dry ingredients into the bottle in layers. After each ingredient, tap the bottle several times on a cloth-covered table, so that the contents are compacted. Close the bottle, label and decorate at will.
2
For the dough: place all ingredients in a bowl. Add the yogurt and water, and knead briefly to form a smooth dough. Cover and let rise at room temperature for 2-2 1/2 hours or until doubled, pulling or folding the dough 1-2 times.
3
Form the proved bread into a roll and place in a parchment-lined loaf pan. Cover and let rest for an additional 20-30 minutes.
4
Top the loaf with pumpkin seeds, then place the tin in a cold oven. Bake at 200 °C for 45-50 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool on a cooling rack.
Tips
You can also add additional chopped, dried fruit, chocolate or nuts to the mixture. Or for a savoury version, fill finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes and dried herbs with the other layers.
