Millet and Sorghum Bread

Ingredients

• 120g (1 cup) millet flour
• 120g (1 cup) sorghum flour
• 60g (1/2 cup) tapioca flour
• 5g (1 tsp) salt
• 5g (1 tsp) baking soda
• 250ml (1 cup) warm water
• 15ml (1 tbsp) apple cider vinegar
• 30ml (2 tbsp) olive oil
• 15g (1 tbsp) honey
• 3g (1 tsp) instant yeast
• 2 large eggs

Instructions

Step 1: Preparing Ingredients

Begin by sifting the millet, sorghum, and tapioca flour into a large mixing bowl. Add salt and baking soda, mixing these dry ingredients thoroughly.

Step 2: Preparing the Yeast Mixture

In a separate small bowl, combine the warm water, honey, and instant yeast. Let this mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes, until it becomes frothy.

Step 3: Mixing the Dough

In the bowl containing dry ingredients, make a well and pour in the yeast mixture. Add the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and beaten eggs. Gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together until a smooth batter forms.

Step 4: Preheating and Preparing the Oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a loaf pan with a bit of olive oil or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 5: Letting the Dough Rise

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, cover the pan with a clean cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes until it appears slightly puffy.

Step 6: Baking the Bread

Once risen, bake the loaf in your preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Rotate the pan halfway through for even baking.

Step 7: Cooling and Serving

Remove the bread from the oven, let it cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn it out onto a cooling rack. Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing. Enjoy your millet and sorghum bread fresh with your favorite spread or as a delightful side to your meals.
