My brother sent me a recipe he found for German Farmer Bread and naturally I had to give it try. Like most bread recipes, the ingredients are simple - flour, water, salt and leavening. This was no different. I just happened to have rye berries for fresh-ground flour and baked on Saturday. We are having a farmers market on Saturday, April 21, so I needed to know if it would work for my table. There will be four long loaves for sale so my friends and customers can weigh in on the following recipe for Farmers Bread. I will also bring jams, jellies, sourdough, buns, caramel roll bread, granola bread, hand loomed dish towels, sauerkraut, cowboy candy and more. Vendors will be set up outdoors and indoors for your Mother's Day shopping. CLICK HERE for more information. Rather than bore you with photos of my bowls, mixer and measuring cups, I present to you the recipe and this photo of the finished product. If you have questions about how to go about creating this wonderful bread, just use this contact form to ask me.
