Can you use spelt flour focaccia?
One of the characteristics of spelt makes it ideal to use for this Easy Spelt Focaccia. The gluten in spelt flour is more fragile; it is important to take care to not over-work or over-mix the dough. The dough requires careful handling; vigorous kneading and mixing could result in a crumbly texture for the focaccia.
Can you use spelt flour in bread?

What is Spelt bread?
Spelt bread is made out of spelt flour instead of wheat flour. Depending on the recipe, spelt breads can contain 100% spelt flour or a blend of spelt and wheat flours. So, spelt bread is kind of like rye bread or oat grain bread in that it contains a grain flour that is something other than wheat.
What makes a focaccia different?
Just like pizza dough, ACE Bakery® focaccia is made with flour, oil, water, yeast and salt.

Focaccias are also usually punctured before baking, which preserves more moisture.
What Spelt flour?
Spelt flour is a flour made from a species of wheat with a nutty, slightly tangy flavor. Since it’s a form of wheat, it does contain gluten. It can be used for making cookies, breads, muffins and other applications where you’d use wheat flour.
What are Spelt flakes used for?
Spelt flakes: Made from whole grains of spelt that have been dried and fatted, spelt flakes look very similar to whole oats. Spelt flakes can be substituted for oats in many recipes including cookies, muffins, breads and crisps.
Can I replace plain flour with spelt?
Spelt can be substituted one-for-one for the whole wheat in any recipe and for up to half of the flour in a recipe using entirely all-purpose. Spelt is low in gluten, so it’s best to keep some of that regular flour to get the right structure and texture in whatever you’re baking.
Why is spelt flour better?
The grain hasn’t been crossed with any other species of wheat, making it purer than most modern wheat. In whole-grain form, it provides more essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. Many believe spelt to be a healthier alternative to conventional wheat.
Why is my spelt bread crumbly?
Too much flour and not enough water can cause crumbly bread – people often do this if the dough is too sticky and they add more flour rather than kneading through it. Other culprits can be overproving or not kneading enough – the things you need to do to get a good structure.
Which is better spelt or wheat?
Whole-grain spelt may be better for you because it contains more protein, essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals than whole-grain wheat. Spelt is an ancient grain and distinct type of wheat (Triticum spelta), and as such has a similar nutritional profile to modern wheat (Triticum aestivum).
Does spelt flour rise?
Spelt flour rises and bakes differently than wheat. Keeping this in mind, the first rising of just the dough should be the full hour or ‘until doubled in bulk’. This is what activates the gluten, yeast, etc. After you shape it into rolls, preheat the oven to 400 F.
What does spelt taste like?

Why are dimples made in focaccia bread?
Focaccia FAQs
A well-proofed dough will have lots of air bubbles and rises quickly; that massaging adds dimples that keep your focaccia flat, as it should be. Also, those dimples hold the olive oil coating and help it soak into the dough, which gives your finished bread that crisp and golden crust.
