In reply to Kathi Bloy. That sounds delicious, Kathi! I can't wait to hear how your bread comes out. I love spelt but have never milled my own.

I can’t wait to try this by milling some of the spelt berries I just bought. I know from working with einkorn that these grains proof quickly, and overproofing can make them fall. I’ll try proofing for a shorter time and hope it rises a little more while baking. Fresh-milled spelt flour also makes delicious brownies and other baked treats.

In reply to SN. Thank you so much for letting me know! We love the taste of spelt and glad to know that it works with the Italian 00 flour!

Just wanted to comment and let you know that this was easily the best bread I’ve ever made! I used an Italian 00 flour and the yeast I normally use for pizzas mixed with some organic whole grain spelt (that I normally have a hard time using up). The result was a super soft, super delicious but nutty and healthy tasting sandwich bread. Thanks a lot for posting!
