Marriage's Golden Wholegrain Dough in a Bread Maker

This is a dough recipe that uses Marriage’s Golden Wholegrain bread flour. It’s made in my ZB2512 Panasonic bread maker and finished in the oven.

I’ve added olives and oregano but you could bake this plain. The flour is really impressive. Marriage's aren’t kidding when they claim it’s sweeter, milder and lighter in colour than traditional wholemeal flour.

This is a big ol’ loaf. It’s made with 600g of flour and I thought it would be fine in my 500g round banneton. It was but only just. Next time I’ll cut this recipe in half as we ended up with loads of leftovers (which happily went into the freezer).

I’ve also made this loaf (minus the olives and oregano) from start to finish in my bread maker. It’s great both ways but this is my preferred method as the shape is more bakery style boule than traditional loaf.

Serves: 1 loaf

Ingredients

425g Marriage's Golden Wholegrain bread flour
175g strong white bread flour
2 tsp sugar
2 tbsp olive oil
1½ tsp salt
370ml water
1½ tsp dried yeast (I use Allinson's Easy Bake Yeast)
1 tbsp dried oregano (optional)
150g olives, sliced (optional)

Method

Put the blade into the bread tin. Add 425g of Marriage’s Golden Wholegrain bread flour, 175g of strong white bread flour, 2 teaspoons of sugar, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1½ teaspoons of salt and 370ml of water into the loaf tin then place into the bread maker.
Optional extras: If using, add 1 tablespoon of dried oregano to the bread pan and 150g of sliced olives to the nut and raisin dispenser.
Add 1½ teaspoons of yeast to the yeast dispenser.
For plain bread: Select an appropriate dough setting. On the Panasonic ZB2512, it's 'Whole wheat' menu 22, which takes 3 hours 15 minutes.
For olive and oregano bread: Select a dough setting that will open the dispenser. For me, it's 'Whole wheat' menu 23 (also 3 hours and 15 minutes).
If using a banneton basket, dust the inside with flour.
Once the dough cycle has finished, tip the dough onto a floured work surface and lightly dust the top with flour. Transfer the dough to the banneton basket if using (mine is a 500g round banneton and it’s a bit small). Otherwise, put it into a large bowl. Cover with oiled cling film or a tea towel. Leave to prove somewhere warm (around 35°C) for 40 minutes.
Place a sheet of greaseproof paper onto a baking tray. Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan).
After 40 minutes the dough should have risen. Tip onto the baking tray and bake for around 30-35 minutes (but check after 25 minutes). It's done when the bottom crust feels firm and doesn't yield when gently pressed. Transfer to a rack and wait for the bread to cool before slicing otherwise it will become gummy.
