Dan – that’s great to know! When I do spelt loaves, the dough is so globby that I just do my best at shaping it. If there are gaps, I assume that is because I didn’t get out enough built up gas prior to the shaping. How is your dough consistency with ww v. spelt? Let me know how this goes for you. I am very interested.

Thank you Wardeh,

I will try your method. What I use is a flatten and roll method. I have found that it works fine with whole wheat and/or all-purpose flour. But I have had problems when I make bread from spelt flour. The problem I have is that the spelt loaves come out with a gap beneath the upper crust and the loaf. I am thinking the more fragile gluten in the spelt flour means that the loaf is less forgiving if the dough is not folded just right. This may be the answer. What I normally do is just flatten the dough, mist it with water a bit, then tightly roll it into shape.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the tutorial. I love your recipe. I added a little molasses for flavor in place of some of the honey, yum!
