Recipe suggested by : Francine - Solar oven : parabolic type, SunGlobe - Preparation time : 10 mn - Cooking time : 2 hours 30

Ingredients

1kg of organic multi-grain flour
2 tbsp of salt
80 cl of warm water
1 bag of baking powder

Preparation of the organic bread recipe

In a bowl, mix flour and salt.
Pour the yeast into the warm water and stir into the flour little by little.
Knead by hand, adding a little flour so that the dough does not stick to your fingers, for 5 minutes.
Let stand for 2 hours.
Place the bread dough in a pan, diameter 24 cm, for 2h30 in the sun, in a medium to hot oven.

Advice

After 1h30 of cooking, turn the pan to 190°.

After 2 hours of cooking, open and prick in the dough with a round-tipped knife. If the dough sticks to the knife, you must prolong the cooking.

Tips

Making the same bread in a smaller pan reduces the cooking time to about 1 1/2 hours.

To prevent the top of the bread from turning black, cover the glass lid with a cotton cloth (very important, otherwise the synthetics will burn) halfway through.

Result : the bread is excellent with a nice brown and crispy crust
