• To make your own low FODMAP sourdough spelt bread, you’re going to need two days. This is because the sourdough process that makes spelt bread low FODMAP takes time. We’ll explain the details behind that later on though! If you don’t have a sourdough starter, don’t worry! We have one listed under our sourdough bread recipe that can help make this baking project some to life!
  

Day One - Morning

• This process starts on the morning of the first day. You’re going to need to feed your sourdough starter. To do this, you’ll discard about half your starter, replacing it with equal parts strong flour and water. After combining these three ingredients, you’ll leave it someplace cool to ferment for the remainder of the day.
  

Day One - Evening

• When you come back to your starter, you should find that it’s quite a bit more bubbly than what it was in the morning. This means that the fermentation process is working! Now that you have a stronger starter, it’s time to make your Poolish. From your starter, take about 1.5 ounces and place it in a bowl. Then, add 5 ounces of strong spelt flour, and 5 ounces of water. Mix everything, then cover the bowl, leaving it out at room temperature.
  

Day Two - Morning

• In the morning you’ll have your Poolish to work with. Mix the Poolish with 9 ounces of strong spelt flour, 5.5 ounces of water, and ½ teaspoons of salt. Knead the dough until it’s stretchy and smooth. You don’t want any patches that look like they’re still dry flour. After this has been accomplished, cover the bowl once again, leaving it out to prove for the day.
  

Day Two - Evening

• All of the work for the last day and a half is about to pay off! Dust a cutting board or your counter with flour and roll the dough out of the bowl. It will have a side with a skin, as well as a sticky side. You want to roll the dough in such a way that the sticky side is contained within the skin of the dough. When doing this, be sure to shape the dough into what your loaf will look like! Once accomplished, cover the dough with a cloth, leaving it out for 2 or 3 more hours.
  
• After the time has passed, preheat your oven to 400°F. Once warm, bake the loaf for 45 minutes. When you check the loaf to see if it has finished baking, tap the underside of it. The thump should sound hollow.
  
• Congratulations, you’ve baked your very own low FODMAP spelt bread!
