Stir with a wooden spoon until a loose dough forms.

add 225 g spelt flour in smaller batches (1/2 cup at a time)

It should be quite smooth and not really sticky. If you’re using a stand mixer, use the dough attachment for this.

Place the dough into a large greased bowl and cover with a tea towel or large plate. Let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for one hour, or until doubled in size. This is called proofing.

When the dough has risen, punch it down gently and place it into a parchment-lined loaf pan

Cover with a tea towel and place the loaf into a warm place
