French Chocolate Bread Recipe
A regular bread dough that is flavored with cocoa powder and studded with small bits of chocolate — an entirely different animal, one that’s more to my taste.
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients
- 200 grams (7 ounces) ripe (100% hydration) starter (see note)
- 540 grams (1 pound 3 ounces) bread flour (I used the French T80, which is partially whole wheat, plus 1 tablespoon wheat gluten)
- 60 grams (1/2 cup) good-quality unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 5 grams (1/6 ounce) fresh yeast, crumbled (substitute 1/2 teaspoon active dry yeast; I use the SAF brand)
- 400 grams (14 ounces) filtered water at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 140 grams (5 ounces) good-quality dark chocolate of your choice (I used one with a 60% cacao content), chopped to chocolate chip size on average (you'll have smaller and larger pieces, that's fine -- use them all)
