Morning Rounds
1- In a bowl, mix
2 tsp instant dry yeast
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 cup warm water
2- In another bowl, add
2 tsp baking powder
3 cups whole wheat flour
2 tbsp flaxseed
2 tbsp c. sesame seeds
1/4 cup roasted almonds, cut into pieces
1/4 cup raisins
3- Mix everything together until you form a ball.*
4- Take the ball of dough in your hand for awhile. Add 1 tbsp water inside the bowl and spread it around. Throw away any excess water. **
5- Add the dough back to the bowl and cover.
6- Let dough rest until it has doubled in size ( about 15-30 min).
7- Separate dough into 8 and shape morning rounds. If need be, add flour to your working surface so as to make sure the dough does not stick.
8- Heat up a pan to low-medium heat and bake the morning rounds (about 2 min on each side). Put the lid on the pan to keep moisture in while baking.
9- Enjoy right away or store for later. Can be frozen.
*Depending on the brand, whole wheat flour can vary quite a bit in texture and so you might need to add more water. The goal here is simply to make sure you don’t see bits of dry flour anywhere.
**Congrats! You just greased a bowl without oil. :)
