Soy Milk & Pulp Bread

A soy milk bread using oats and quinoa soy milk and added a small amount of multigrain soy pulp. Sweet, soft and chewy texture bread which I loved 😋

The same bread recipe can be divided into 4 small loaves and baked in two 1L Jamie Oliver pans (17.5x10x9 cm) with shorter baking time 🍞🍞🍞🍞

Smaller loaves with thicker slices 😋

Directions

Knead the dough following your preferred method till reaching window pane.

1. Mix  Ingredient A in a mixing bowl.

2. Mix in Ingredient B. Mix in one direction till it becomes a lump. Cover with a lid and let the dough rest for 15 minutes

3. Knead the dough using an electric hand mixer fitted with a pair of dough hooks till the dough is smoother. Knead in Ingredient C.

4. Knead in Ingredient D, 

till the dough is smoother and a bit glossy.

5. Perform about 200 sets of "slapping and folding" till the dough is elastic (the dough can stretch to about 30 cm without breaking).

The dough can also be pulled out into a thin membrane, known as window pane stage.

6. Shape into a ball

and transfer the dough into a plastic bag coated with a thin layer of oil. Tie a loose knot, and keep in a second plastic bag before storing in a big mixing bowl with a lid.

Store the dough in the fridge for about 12 to 16 hours, or overnight to undergo cold fermentation. 

My fridge temperature is about 4℃.

7. On the next day, remove the outer plastic bag, invert the dough, and let it thaw in room temperature for about 2 hours.

Turn out the dough onto a floured work top. Deflate the dough, divide into 3 portions, and shape into 3 balls. Cover with an inverted mixing bowl, and rest for 15 minutes.

8. Roll out the dough to about 1 cm thick.

Flip over the dough, and fold in the two wings, overlapping each other.

Roll flat to achieve an even thickness. Finally, roll up like a swiss roll.

Pinch to seal the edge.

Place the shaped dough into the prepared bread pan.

End of 105-minute second proofing, or till the dough almost reaching the rim of the pan👇

9. Start to preheat oven to 180℃ for about 10 minutes. While waiting, brush beaten egg over the top of the dough.

Sprinkle oatmeal over the egg wash.

10. Bake at 180℃ for 15 minutes, reduce to 170℃ for 10~15 minutes, turn off oven and continue to bake for 5 minutes

10. Remove the hot bread from the pan after leaving the oven, and rest on a wire rack to cool down.

11. After the bread has completely cooled down, cut and enjoy 🍞 😋
