Three Minute Spelt Bread

Amazingly quick, simple and delicious seedy spelt bread - I'm hoping that some friends of mine who can't tolerate wheat will be able to eat this, it does contain gluten so isn't any good for those have problems with gluten. Recipe originally comes from the Telegraph Magazine, I found it on the True Food Coop website. Seems a bit wrong that this bread is not kneaded and doesn't get left to rise yet still works so well. As I write I have a loaf cooling on the counter top calling to me! I've since read that allowing the dough to rise overnight in a cool place makes it even better - I'll be trying that when I'm not in a rush.
