The first bread I picked from the World Bread Day 2013 roundup is a simple one, because I think it is important to show that it is really easy to make good bread. This loaf shows that it is not essential to bake with preferment and/or sourdough to get a tasty bread.
The inspiration, yes I say inspiration because I rarely follow a recipe, I found in the P section of the World Bread Day roundup to be precise in the Polish blog Sweet Escape Into Kitchen from Judyta Deker. She writes about this bread:
„Easy-to-make whole wheat bread with wonderful honey flavour. Fluffy, soft and also very healthy. There is nothing more delightful than a homemade, freshly baked loaf.“
So true, I don’t have to say more…

This is my submission to BBD #62 – Bread Baking Day meets World Bread Day – now I am looking forward to see which loaf you pick for the event
Herrlich! Das habe ich sogar auch auf meiner Nachbackliste, werde mir aber am Wochenende ein anders vorknöpfen ;)
Hallo Zorra,
für den Soaker, nimmst Du da Haferflocken oder ganze Haferkörner?
Ich habe Haferflocken verwendet. Hab’s im Rezept korrigiert. Danke für den Hinweis.
Bin gespannt welches du backen wirst, wobei du hättest auch dieses backen können. Wäre doch interessant zu sehen, wie du es interpretierst.
