susan March 26th, 2009 at 10:10 pmhey! for some reason, this recipe bulked on me. I got a 5×5 lump of loaf on Breadman Plus as a result, which was highly dense. How do I get it to be fluffier and less dense? If I cut a slice, it ends up being 4x the calorie count because it is so dense and it lumped up. Please send me some info or comment on the page for a response. I’d love to know! I followed the directions appropriately and set the thing for 1 – 1 1/2 lb (the only other option besides 2lb, which this isn’t)
Thanks!

Spelt does not rise quite as high as wheat flour. But, spelt tastes so good, you probably won’t even notice that your bread is underinflated.

Natalie January 5th, 2010 at 2:16 pmI am looking for a cranberry-orange bread recipe. Hope some one hase one.
Cherie Sczyporski November 18th, 2010 at 10:50 amSorry to hear it Susan, I like mine fluffy too and am somewhat disappointed- though what I do read is we both may have better results by doing 1. a white spelt and raw spelt flour mix and 2. making it by hand (not by machine). Seems one site said it takes spelt longer to get “up” than regular flour, and our machines are so “pushy”. I noticed the recipe up top adds gluten….. hmmm, verily, a clue to its stubborness to rise when we’d like it to rise. Thanks, Natalie, for the confirmation, but we’d still like a little fluff. Back to our kitchens for Susan and me, to that hinterland of recipe research and striving for the, if not “perfect” spelt bread, a fluffier one.
Collie March 4th, 2012 at 2:38 pmGosh it was Divine who liked the fluffly. Pardon on my faux pas.
Collie March 4th, 2012 at 2:40 pmHi in regards to the slower rising I use the bread machine up to the second rise then I take it out then hand kneed and raise in a tin and cook in the regular oven. This way it gets as much rising time as needed.
