200 g water

90 g PRO 1000GB

85 g whole wheat flour

9 g salt

20 g Organic Liquid Demerara Sugar

36 g melted refined coconut oil

130 g water

Sponge

Porridge

Preparation:

  1. Sponge: Combine all the ingredients and let ferment for 30 to 60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  2. Porridge: Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, or until the mixture starts to pull away from the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
  3. Dough: Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
  4. Once the dough is smooth, transfer it to a work surface and knead for 10 minutes. Return it to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for 1 hour.
  5. Grease a 22 × 11 × 6 cm loaf pan with butter and set aside.
  6. Transfer the risen dough to a work surface. Gently press it with your fingertips to release the air, then roll it up into a log. Pinch the seam firmly to seal it and place it in the prepared loaf pan, seam side down (smooth side facing up).
  7. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise for 45 minutes, or until the dough rises above the rim of the pan.
  8. Brush demerara sugar over the entire surface of the loaf and sprinkle a little whole wheat flour on top.
  9. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 40 minutes.
  10. Remove from the oven, take the loaf out of the pan, and let it cool for 20 minutes before serving.
