Mom's Spelt Bread
Mom's Spelt Bread bakes up with a hearty crumb and nutty flavor from a mix of whole grain and white spelt flours. Lightly sweetened and enriched with oil, it rises into a tender, golden loaf that’s great warm with butter or for sandwiches. Ideal for weekend baking or sharing at the table.

In a bowl, mix 3 1/2 cups whole grain spelt flour, 3 cups white spelt flour, water, oil, sugar, yeast, and salt with a spoon until mostly combined. Switch to kneading by hand, adding more white spelt flour if needed, but not too much. Continue kneading until the dough feels like your earlobe.
