https://glutenfree-bread.com/recipe-detail/millet-bread-with-yeast/
Ingredients:
- Millet, dry - 300 gr
- Water, up to - 630 gr
- Whole Psyllium Husks - 22 gr
- Active Yeast - 7 gr
- Olive Oil - 15 ml
- Salt - 6 gr
- Sugar - 6 gr
Steps:
- Rinse the Millet ( 300 gr ) under cold water. Soak the millet in water for 8 hours or overnight to allow it to absorb moisture.
- Preheat the oven to 395°F ( 200°C ) and line the loaf pan with parchment paper.
- After soaking, thoroughly drain the millet.
- Weigh the drained millet to determine the amount of water it has absorbed.
- Add enough water to the drained Millet so that the total weight of the mixture is 630 grams.
- Transfer mixture to a blender and add 15 ml of Olive Oil to it.
- Blend until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, mix 7 g of Active Yeast with 6 g of Sugar. Stir this mixture into the blended millet mixture.
- Let it sit for about 5 minutes to activate the yeast.
- Add 22 g of Psyllium Husk, 6 g of Salt, and any additional spices (if desired) to the mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined. Allow the mixture to sit for another 5 minutes to thicken.
- Transfer the mixture to a prepared loaf pan or baking tray. Smooth the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle seeds or other toppings on top.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 45 minutes. Baking times may vary, so check towards the end of the suggested time. Perform a tap test or skewer test to ensure the bread is fully cooked (the bread should sound hollow when tapped on the bottom, and a skewer inserted in the center should come out clean).
- Allow the bread to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Once cooled, slice and enjoy your freshly baked millet bread!
