LoafNest Breads
Creative Tips
LoafNest makes creative bread making possible for the experienced
and for the beginners. For easy and quick creative options, here are
some ideas for what you can change in the LoafNest Method at each
step.
– Creative modication to step 1
1. Try mixing whole wheat and white ours in dierent pro-
portions
2. Add dierent ours like Spelt, Barley, Rye
3. If you have a sourdough starter, use it instead of yeast
4. Add seeds and grains like ax, oats, sunower seeds
5. Add dairy or vegetable juices to supplement water
6. Add shredded or chopped veggies like carrot, beetroot,
spinach
7. Add dry fruit like raisins, chopped dates, apricots, gs
8. Add whole or chopped nuts like almonds, cashew or peanuts
– Creative modications to step 2
1. Experiment with shorter and longer raise times. Dierent
raise times give dierent avor proles.
– Creative modications to step 3
1. Try using programming functions of your oven if available,
to pre-heat the LoafNest Casserole to minimize the waiting
time.
– Creative modications to step 4
1. As with options at step 1, you can try mixing up various
things into your dough just before pouring it in.
2. After pouring the dough, before closing the lid, try topping
up the loaf with seeds like sesame or sunower seeds. Just
plain our, semolina, wheat bran, or cornmeal also give a
nice artisan look to the loaf. Shredded cheese works great
as a topping too and so do dry herbs and spices.
– Creative modications to step 5
1. Experiment with slightly higher or lower baking tempera-
tures. Loaves that have sugar or sweet ingredients benet
from a lower baking temperature.
