Beetroot Bread with Açaí Oil

Ingredients:

First part:

  • 10g organic yeast
  • 2/3 cup of warm water
  • 1 tablespoon of sugarcane molasses
  • ¼ cup of wheat flour

Second part:

  • ½ cup of warm water
  • ¼ cup of olive oil
  • ¼ cup of açaí oil
  • 2 medium beets, chopped, steamed
  • 2 to 3 cups of wheat flour
  • Enough molasses to brush the bread
  • 2 tablespoons of chia
  • 1 teaspoon of salt

Method of Preparation:

  1. In a bowl, place the ingredients from the first part and mix. Cover with a dry cloth and let the yeast act for 30 minutes. Leave in a draft-free place.
  2. In a blender, blend the cooked beetroot with the warm water and oil until it becomes a homogeneous cream.
  3. Mix the beetroot cream with the yeast (which was prepared with the first part), add the salt and flour little by little, until you form a dough that does not stick to your hand, but do not let the dough become dry or hard. Place in a cake or bread pan, sprinkled with a little flour. Cover the pan with a cloth and let it rise for about 40 minutes to 1 hour.
  4. Place in the preheated oven at 200°C. Bake for around 50 minutes. The bread should be lightly browned and baked inside. Remove from the oven, brush with molasses and sprinkle with chia. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.
  5. Remove from the oven, wait to cool and serve.
