Now, let’s start with the recipe for Breakfast Bread with Quark and Chia Seeds.

Equipment Needed:

• Mixing bowl
• Baking Mould

Ingredients for Breakfast Bread with Quark and Chia Seeds:

• 500 gm Refined Flour
• 10 gm Sugar
• 7 gm Instant Dry Yeast
• 5 gm Salt
• 250 gm Low Fat Quark
• 2 tbsp Olive Oil
• 4 tbsp Chia Seeds
• Lukewarm Water for kneading a smooth dough

Method to make Breakfast Bread with Quark and Chia Seeds:

• In a small bowl, mix sugar, 100ml water, and yeast. Let it rest for 2-3 minutes or until the yeast bubbles.
  
  
  
• In a big mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.
  
  
  
• Add the yeast and sugar mix.
  
  
  
• Add quark and chia seeds.
  
  
  
• Add water. Stretch and knead the dough for 10 minutes.
  
  
  
• Add oil and knead it again for another 5 minutes.
  
  
  
• Cover and rest the dough until it doubles in size. This should typically happen in an hour at room temperature of about 25 degrees C.
  
  
  
• Knock the dough and knead it for a minute.
  
  
  
• Transfer the dough to a greased and dusted baking mould.
  
  
  
• Sprinkle some more chia seeds on top and press them so they stick to the dough.
  
  
  
• Cover and rest it for about 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, the dough will rise again. Give it diagonal cuts with a knife.
  
  
  
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C for 10 minutes.
• Transfer the mould to the oven and bake at 200 degrees C for about 45 minutes. Remove the bread and let it cool on a wire rack.
  
  
  
• Once it cools, slice it.
