Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 520 grams whole wheat flour (approx 4 cups)
- 8 grams packet instant yeast (approx 2 1/4 tsp)
- 3/4 tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or other sweetener like date or agave syrup)
- 2 cups warm water
- 1/2 cup dried figs (packed (approx 6-7 figs, chopped into small pieces))
- 1/2 cup walnut pieces (packed)
Instruction
- Line a 5-inch x 9-inch loaf pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Add the flour, instant yeast, and salt to a large bowl and mix well.
- Then add the maple syrup to a bowl of warm water and mix to dissolve. Then pour the water into your bowl of flour and mix using a silicone spatula, without overmixing, and DO NOT KNEAD.
- Fold in the chopped figs and walnut pieces and then transfer the dough to your prepared loaf pan. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and let it rest for 20 minutes. It will rise to approximately double its size, and the bread will reach the top of your loaf pan. (see notes)
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400°F/204°C and then bake your risen fig and walnut bread for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool before slicing.
