HEIDE kocht | Roggenschrotbrot, das typische Brot der Lüneburger Heide | mit Rezept

rye flour

🥗Healthier: spelt flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Spelt flour is often considered healthier due to its higher protein content.

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Yogurt provides similar tanginess with fewer calories.

honey

🥗Healthier: maple syrup

💰Cheaper: sugar

Maple syrup offers a unique flavor while being a natural sweetener.

caraway seeds

🥗Healthier: fennel seeds

💰Cheaper: anise seeds

Fennel seeds provide a similar aromatic flavor.

Combine rye flour, wheat flour, and salt in a large mixing bowl.

Dissolve yeast in warm water and let sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.

Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture along with buttermilk and honey.

Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 10 minutes until smooth.

Incorporate caraway seeds, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds into the dough.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).

Shape the dough into a round loaf and place on a baking sheet.

Let the loaf rise for another 30 minutes, covered with a cloth.

Score the top of the loaf with a sharp knife.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped on the bottom.

Cool on a wire rack before slicing.
