BBD #44 – Bread with Walnuts

Sarah from Winged Snail invites us to bake a bread with Autumn flavors for Bread Baking Day #44.

Bread Baking Day #44 - Autumn flavors (last day of submission December 1st)

I remember stormy days in autumn from my childhood. My grandmother was cracking walnuts at the table I was sitting on the hot oven and she was telling fairy tails or other stories from the past. I loved this time and I love walnuts. So it was easy what kind of bread I will bake.

Remove loaf carefully from banneton. Slash and bake for 15 minutes, open oven door to release steam, reduce heat to 220 C and bake another 15 minutes. Remove loaf from oven and let cool on a wire rack.
