Thank you so much for the recipe!🍀 I really want to try it. Is malt powder really necessary? What will change if I don't add it? 😊

[@TrellisandTrails]

You're so welcome! I think you could do without the malt powder since it's only 10grams. I think as long as you're adding the Guinness that's what really gives it the flavor. From what I can tell, I think the malt powder does add some flavor but more so adds to the color and makes it more brown than typical sourdough. Let me know what you think after you try it!

Great recipe, gonna have to try it! At what temperatures did you bake it ? 20m with the lid 20m without or?

[@TrellisandTrails]

Thank you! I baked it at 450 degrees but it baked much quicker than my usual sourdough loaves. I baked it for around 40 minutes (about 30 with lid on and 10 with lid off). I would actually try 20m with lid on and then about 10-20m with off, but I would watch it closely at this point because it might only take 10 or so. I also live at high elevation so if it baked for only 40mins, it will probably be much quicker if you live at lower elevation! Let me know if you try it!

What is malt powder?

[@TrellisandTrails]

It's made from ground barley! Helps with the fermentation and flavor of the bread! Adds more of a grain/wheat flavor. Not required but it definitely added a nice flavor and gorgeous brown color!

@@TrellisandTrails thank you!

@rebeccadees2300 no problem! Oh also I had to order it from Amazon, I don't think my local grocery stores carry it.
