Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 200 g whole wheat flour (I used whole spelt flour); 125 g flour (I used spelt flour); 7 12 g sourdough starter (dry sourdough powder, not liquid sourdough!); 4 teaspoons baking powder; ¼ teaspoon salt; 2 tablespoons poppy seeds; 2 tablespoons sesame seeds; 1 ½ tablespoons oats; 1 teaspoon honey (heaping); 190 ml warm water; 100 g cheese, cubed (or grated, use a mix of aromatic cheeses)

Servings: persons

200 g whole wheat flour (I used whole spelt flour)
125 g flour (I used spelt flour)
7 12 g sourdough starter (dry sourdough powder, not liquid sourdough!)
4 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 ½ tablespoons oats
1 teaspoon honey (heaping)
190 ml warm water
100 g cheese, cubed (or grated, use a mix of aromatic cheeses)

1
Mix all dry ingredients (flours, sourdough, baking powder, seeds, salt and oats) in a big bowl.
2
Add honey and enough water to knead everything into a smooth dough.
3
Depending on your climate you might need more or less water.
4
On a lightly floured surface knead in the cheese cubes or grated cheese until well incorporated (this will take a few minutes).
5
Shape dough into a baguette loaf and place on a paper-lined baking sheet.
6
Bake in the preheated oven at 200C/400F for about 25 minutes or until tester inserted in the middle comes out clean.
7
You might need to cover it after 20 minutes to prevent overbrowning.
8
Note: If you place an oven-proof bowl filled with water in the oven while baking the bread, the crust will get extra crunchy.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
