Crafted with the spirit of the Finnish wilderness, my "Nordic Rye Rounds" bring the rustic charm of Finland to your table. These delightful rounds, a blend of rye, whole wheat, and oats, are touched with the sweetness and depth of treacle.

Whether paired with a stew or enjoyed on their own, they are a culinary journey through the heart of Finland! These rye rounds are crispy on the outside and delightfully soft on the inside.

This recipe makes around 12 medium size rounds.

Ingredients

  • 7 g active dry yeast
  • 5 dl lukewarm water
  • 1 tbsp black treacle
  • ½ tbsp sea salt
  • 6 dl rye flour
  • 1.5 dl wheat flour
  • 0.5 dl rolled oats

  1. 1 Dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water and stir in the treacle.
  2. 2 Mix the rye flour, wheat flour, rolled oats, and sea salt.
  3. 3 Gradually add the dry ingredients into the yeast mixture to form a dough. It'll be sticky and shaggy - this is normal. Don't add extra flour.
  4. 4 Cover the dough and let it rise for about 1 hour.
  5. 5 Divide and dollop the mixture into 12 portions onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Lightly sprinkle with rye flour, and form into rounds.
  6. 6 Allow the rounds to rise for another 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200°C (or 180°C for convection).
  7. 7 Bake the rounds for 20-25 minutes until they are dark and crisp. They should sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  8. 8 Let them cool on a wire rack before serving.
