Nothing beats a fresh slice of thyme bread with cheese and a cup of sweet tea on a saturday morning…
 

I’m one of those lucky people that own a bread making machine! My sister bought it from Paris a few years ago, my Mum used it a few times then it just sat in the kitchen sad and alone… Until I rediscovered it again! It is actually an amazing machine that is extremely easy to use, all you have do is add the ingredients, wait for 2-3 hours, and BAM you have a homemade, delicious, healthy, fresh loaf of bread made with high-quality ingredients.

We now bake different bread loaves pretty often, almost every day. I’m not a big fan of ready bread loaves that you can purchase at any bakery, most of the time they add some weird chemicals to keep the loaf fresh and soft for a long time, and that’s definitely not good.
 
This is probably my favourite savoury bread that I bake, I usually have it with a layer of butter and it tastes AMAZING. Or with dinner (for example soup!) You will love how crusty the golden crust is, and how soft it is from the inside.
 
If you try this recipe, leave me a comment and tell me how it did turn out. But I’m pretty sure that you will LOVE it.

Print Rate Recipe Email Recipe
1 kg loaf

Ingredients

  • 60 grams butter room temperature
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 310 ml fresh milk
  • 470 all purpose flour
  • 1.5 tsp instant yeast
  • 2 tbsp flax seed
  • 2 tbsp dried thyme
  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp virgin olive oil

Instructions

Using an oven:

  • Preheat oven to 220°.
  • In a medium sized bowl beat butter with honey and milk, continue beating until combined.
  • In another bowl whisk together flour with salt, and yeast. (activate yeast by adding 2tbsp of lukewarm water and 1tsp of sugar)
  • Slowly stir the flour mixture to the butter and milk mixture, stir until just combined but do not over mix.
  • Let dough sit for 1 hour in a bowl covered with damp cloth in a warm place.
  • knead for 10-15 minutes, then add seeds to dough.
  • Line a loaf pan with wax paper and add the dough, add olive oil to top and sprinkle with dried thyme.
  • Bake until top is golden and bread is ready. Let it chill on a wire rack for half an hour and serve.

Notes:

If you own a bread making machine, all you have to do is mix the ingredients in sequence above, choose dark crust, and size of 1000 grams (1kg), switch it on and let it do its thing.

    How much flour is supposed to be used? It just says “470 all purpose flour”. Are they grams? I need to convert to US measurements and I want to make sure I have it correctly. I think it would mean 2 cups flour?
