Product recommendation
No bread flour? You can make a 1:1 substitute. For 1 cup bread flour, use 1 cup all-purpose, and vice-versa. Bread and pizza crusts made with all-purpose flour may have a little less chew than those made with bread flour, but results will still be good.
Preparation steps
1.
Mix together the bread flour, chestnut flour and salt in a mixing bowl.
2.
Dissolve the yeast in the water and add to the dry ingredients with the oil. Mix well to form a dough.
3.
Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, then knead in the pine nuts.
4.
Put into an oiled bowl, cover with oiled cling film and leave to rise at room temperature for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
5.
Briefly knead the dough, shape it into a loaf shape and place on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Make cuts across the surface.
6.
Cover and leave to stand for 30 minutes. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with pine nuts.
7.
Heat the oven to 180°C / 350°F.
8.
Bake for about 45 minutes until risen and golden. Place on a wire rack to cool.
