    Tips for Baking with Einkorn

    Einkorn has a weaker gluten structure than modern wheat. As a result, it can be tricky to work with einkorn. It tends to tear more easily and produces a very sticky dough that can be difficult to manage.

    It also absorbs liquid at lower rates than conventional flour. So, you need to use recipes designed for einkorn flour. When adapting recipes for einkorn, use about 25% less liquid and fat than called for.
