Easy No Knead Whole Wheat Flour Bread Recipe

By Heather
This is the easiest whole wheat einkorn bread recipe! The dough mixes quickly with no kneading involved for a fool-proof bread recipe that uses 100% whole grain einkorn flour. If you’ve tried my viral no-knead crusty einkorn bread recipe but want a whole wheat flour alternative, this recipe is for you! It has the best nutty flavor and a great texture!

Ingredients 

Instructions 

  • In a large bowl add the flour, sea salt, and yeast. Stir to combine.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the warm water, honey, and oil until the honey is fully combined with the water.
  • Pour the liquid into the flour mixture and stir with a stiff spatula until you can no longer see any flour. No need to knead it!
  • Oil a loaf pan and add the mixed dough to it. Smooth out the top of the dough. Cover it with a damp towel or lightly with plastic wrap and place in a warm (not drafty) space to rise for 3-8 hours. The rise time will depend on your room temperature – a cooler space will take longer.
  • When your dough has risen and just about doubled, it’s time to bake it!
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • When the oven is preheated and ready to go, bake the bread for 10 minutes, then add foil on top of the loaf to prevent it from browning too quickly. Bake for 15-20 more minutes (a total of 25-30 minutes) until the top is golden, and the bread is baked through. To test doneness, tap the top of the loaf – it should sound hollow when done baking.
  • Remove the bread from the loaf pan and allow it to cool on a wire rack. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

Note – For the images you see I didn’t add the foil until the 20-minute mark and it browned too quickly – 10 minutes is the perfect time to cover it to prevent it from browning too much!
