*YEASTED* NEXT LEVEL BUTTER BREAD (ARTISAN EGG WHITE BREAD)
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups (295ml) of warm water (100-110 degrees)
- 1 tsp honey or inulin
- 2 ¼ tsp (9g) active dry yeast
- 100 g (1 1/4) cup egg white powder
- 1 tsp unflavored gelatin
- 1 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
- 1/2 tsp Redmond real salt
- 1/4 cup (36g) allulose
- 2 tbsp (16g) arrowroot powder
To add after whipping:
- 1 stick salted butter, frozen and grated
Instructions
- Grate or shred the 1/2 cup of frozen butter and transfer it back to the freezer until time to add it to the batter.
- In a small bowl whisk together the warm water and honey and sprinkle the yeast over the top.
- Set yeast mixture aside in a warm place (90-105 degrees) to activate while preparing the other ingredients.
- To the bowl of your stand mixer whisk together the egg white powder, gelatin, cream of tartar, salt and allulose and set aside.
- Whisk the arrowroot powder in to the warm yeast and water mixture.
- Combine the yeast mixture with the egg white powder mixture and whisk by hand until all the dry ingredients are moistened.
- Start the mixer with the whisk attachment on low speed. Gradually increase the speed until full. Mix on full speed for 5-15 minutes or until stiff peaks form.
- Reduce speed to low and stir in the frozen butter shreds just until combined.
- Spread the batter into a large, parchment paper lined loaf pan (mine is 10x6in).
- Score the top of loaf down the middle and allow to proof in a warm spot (90-105 degrees) for 1 hour.
- In the meantime, preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
- Score the top of the loaf again and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until firm and cooked through.
- Remove the bread from the pan and peel away the parchment paper.
- Allow to rest on a wire rack until completely cool to the touch.
- Slice and enjoy!
