Single-Serving Toast Recipe Tutorial (Wheat-Free)


I'm sure that you'd like me to say that it starts here with just some toast and a slather of chocolate, but it doesn't - it starts with something much more simple that we normal folks can't make. But what we normal folks can make is some toast...it doesn't seem special until you realize that each one is unique. This is for the people that like to just have one little slice of bread in a while or have a serious love for the ends of the bread in the bag. This is fresher, quicker and cheaper than the others.

What's your favorite breakfast food?

Single-Serving Toast Ingredients:
3/4 cup of Rye Flour
1/2 cup of Masa Harina
1/2 tsp of Salt
A tiny pinch of Baking Soda
Wet Ingredients:
1/4 tsp of Active-Rise Yeast
1/2 tsp of Sweetener (add more if you want sweeter bread)
1/4 cup of Warm Water
1 tsp of Oil (optional)



Step 1. Mix your dry ingredients together (except for the yeast) and then add in the yeast once it has finished proofing with the wet ingredients. Mix by hand about 30 times until the dough looks like the picture on the right. Add more water until it becomes a thick pancake batter (add a bit more water because rye soaks up a lot)


Step 2. This is my precious, secret weapon - an adorable little non-stick square pan that is barely bigger than my hands. Heat it on low heat and pour your batter in after it has had time to proof for about 30 minutes. Heat until the bottom is smooth and cooked, then flip and cook until done. If you're worried about overheating then you can finish it in the oven. If you don't have one of these you can make a makeshift one for the oven out of tinfoil. 




Step 3. Slather with your favorite toppings (I prefer a homemade nutella, almonds and cranberries) and enjoy! Simple as toast!


Enjoy!
