HONEYED CARROT & THYME LOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix the honey and 1 tsp oil, then add the carrot and thyme. Season and stir well. Tip onto a baking tray and roast for 10-15 mins, tossing halfway through cooking. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, combine the flours, baking powder, bicarb and a pinch of salt. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs, yogurt and remaining oil. Add the flour mix, then fold in the roasted carrot mix.
• Pour into a lined 900g loaf tin and bake for 50 mins-1 hr. Leave to cool before slicing. To serve, top with chutney and cheddar, cream cheese or honey.

GARLIC-THYME BREAD

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine yeast and water, and allow to stand in a warm place for 10 minutes or until foamy.
• Stir in oil, salt, garlic, thyme, and whole wheat flour.
• Add white flour 1/4 cup at a time, as needed, until a stiff manageable dough is formed.
• Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 5 to 10 minutes, or until dough is smooth and elastic.
• Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and set aside in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled.
• (For even more garlicky flavour, after the dough has risen once, punch it down and place in refrigerator for 1 to 3 days. Let it come to room temperature, and then proceed with the following directions.) Preheat oven to 450° and dust a baking sheet with cornmeal.
• If desired, work a bit of parmesan-reggiano into the dough at this point with some olive oil for extra flavour.
• Form the dough into a round, place on prepared cooking sheet, cover with plastic, and let rise for 30 minutes.
• Brush lightly with cold water, bake for 5 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 400° and continue baking for 20-30 minutes, or until loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
