Brauðskálar

Soup cup bread

Ingredients for 4 bread bowls
 
650 ml lukewarm water
600 g ground flour
400 g wholemeal flour
30 g dry yeast
1 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp sea salt


Preparation

Put water, yeast and honey in a bowl, add salt and flour and knead everything well.

Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until the dough has doubled in size.

Divide the dough into four parts, shape each into a round loaf and let it rise for another half hour covered on a baking tray lined with baking paper.

Preheat the oven to 450 °F (240 °C) upper/lower heat.

Put all four breads in the preheated oven, after 5 minutes reduce the heat to 400 °F (200 °C) upper and lower heat and bake for another 20 minutes.

Let the bread cool down a little, then cut off the top and hollow out the bread...

...and then use it as a “soup bowl”.

With the "Brauðskálar" we had a classic, albeit slightly "spiced up" tomato soup.
