fluffy bread:

Bread and butter. Even as a small child I loved the simplest dish I can think of, fresh bread with butter. Well, nowadays I make homemade bread and only use plant based butter, but the taste of this classic meal is just incomparable.

ingredients:

  • 400ml lukewarm water
  • 1 package dry yeast
  • 180g spelled flour
  • 330g wheat flour
  • dried thyme and dill
  • salt

instructions:

  • mix the water with the yeast and let it rest for about 7 minutes
  • meanwhile combine all of the dry ingredients and season it with approximately 1 tbsp of each herb and 3 tsp of salt
  • add the water and work the dough with your kitchen aid or your hands (even though I own a pretty cool kitchen machine I prefer to work it with my hands until I reach a thick ball of bread dough)
  • cover the pot with cling film
  • let the dough rest in the warmest room of your flat for 2 hours minimum
  • shift the risen dough into a baking pan of choice
  • cover the top with a little bit of olive oil and add cuttings to the top of the dough
  • bake the bread for about 35 minutes with 180-200 degrees (until it has reached a thick light brown crust)

savory pancakes with tofu:

Not everyone worships sweet meals as much as I do. That is why I wanted to create a savory version of one of my favorite sweet dishes, huge pancakes with marmalade. This variant with tofu and vegetables cased in a aromatic savory dough is perfectly fine for me as well.

ingredients:

  • 200g oat meal
  • 2 tbsp of oat flakes
  • 30g spelt or whole wheat flour
  • 250 ml of oat milk (if you want to reduce the calories and use tap water instead use 300 ml)
  • 150 ml mineral water
  • salt
  • garlic powder
  • salt seasoned with herbs („Kräutersalz“)
  • dried oregano
  • dill
  • 1 white onion
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 3 medium sized carrots
  • 1 rod of radish (size of a carrot)
  • 1 leaf of leak
  • 1 block of smoked tofu

instructions:

  • mix the following ingredients for the pancake dough: oat milk, oat meal, oat flakes, mineral water, flour, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp herb salt, 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp garlic powder and a little bit of dill
  • put the dough in a pan and form a proper large pancake
  • switch sides as soon as you can see bubbles and a thicker consistency on the top
  • in another pan fry 1 cut onion and crushed and chopped clove of garlic in some plant based oil until they turn a little brown
  • set them aside while fermenting the cut carrots, radish and leak with the herb-seasoned salt and some more oil for about 5 minutes with the lid on
  • when the carrots are easily to poke through set them aside as well and sauté the cubes of tofu with oregano and garlic powder unter it is a little crusty
  • mix the all of the vegetables with the tofu and ad 1 can (approximated 200ml) of oat cuisine and season it once more to your will
  • Fill the huge pancakes with the vegetables and ENJOY! 🙂
