RE: Sourdough Toast Heaven: 🍞 Walnut, Cranberry and Cacao Nibs 👼
It looks so tasty! Second last pic made me wonder, was the baked dough more on the dry side or on the moist side? It looks a bit shiny on the image so I'd say moist?
Moist. It's slathered with butter though and very fresh. I tried to balance the wetness of the dough with the dry ingredients that would absorb some water..do you bake bread? It's all a guessing game.for me
..
A wild guess, but would adding ground nuts in the dough get it more dry? I think it could, but then it would risk not letting the dough rise as well? Do mind I'm not the most expirienced baker around. haha
Never did bake bread by myself, I usualy just help out whenever mom makes bread or anything sweet. I did make a super simple cake the other day though. It looked wonky, but was, to my surprise, tasty!
The guessing game is just the part of the expirience, it's always fun to see what comes out of it.
It is fun experimentation. I decided not to add chia or coconut as it would make it too dry and I agree... ground nuts would be like a flour so I don't know how it will affect the rise and texture of the loaf. I'm also not sure why as the chunky nuts and seeds and fruit are what makes this an exciting loaf. Next time I'm not using cranberries as I cant do too much sweet food for brekky and I'm going to add some coconut too and maybe banana.
Coconut sounds fun, you should totally do that.
Removing cranberries is reasonable too, you can always put jam on the bread if you get a sweet tooth.
Yeah that's exactly my thinking!!! Nice one. Xx
