Split Tin Bread
This is an easy to bake bread. It should work in a bread maker as well if you have one (I don’t have). Just put all the ingredients in the maker find the right settings for it and off you go.
Ingredients
- 300g Strong white flour
- 200g Wholemeal plain flour
- 1tsp Sugar
- 7g Dried yeast
- 7g Salt
- 2tbsp Dried Thyme
- 300-350ml Lukewarm Water
- 1 Egg
If you don’t have a bread maker, like me, firstly, mix the yeast with a teaspoon of sugar and lukewarm water, leave it for 10 minutes. Mix the flours, salt, and thyme and form a well in the middle. Crack an egg into the well, add the yeast mixture and the water. Work the dough for a few minutes and leave it in a warm place to rise for 60-90 minutes.
Push back the risen dough, and kneed it for a good 10 minutes.
Grease a loaf tin with butter. I also sprinkle it with flour so it won’t stuck to it. Leave it to rise again for another 30 minutes, and slash it length wise with a sharp knife or blade. Spray some water on the top of the loaf. It will make it crispier.
Bake it for 35-40 minutes on 200°C. When it’s baked, it make a hollow sound when you tap it on the bottom.
Perfect for sandwiches!
