Well, I'm all for healthy, but my family and I have come to prefer this great bread as our mainstay. Still loaded with lots of great stuff! Ingredients:
2 cups buttermilk, lukewarm (or 2 c milk with 2 t lemon juice) |
2 eggs |
2 tablespoons soft butter or 2 tablespoons non-hydrogenated margarine |
1/3 cup honey |
1 tablespoon baking salt (can also use table salt) |
1/3 cup cracked wheat |
1/3 cup ground flax seeds |
1 tablespoon millet (optional) |
1 tablespoon quinoa (optional) |
1 tablespoon amaranth (optional) |
1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds (optional) |
3 cups whole wheat flour |
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup gluten |
1 tablespoon yeast |
Directions:
1. Add all ingredients into bread machine in order listed; set to dough setting.
2. Take completed dough, split in half, and shape into 2 greased loaf pans.
3. Cover with kitchen towel and let rise 45 minutes.
4. Bake in preheated 350 oven for 35 minutes (Hint: set rising timer early to allow preheat time).
5. Turn onto wire racks to cool at least a few minutes, then devour, preferably after slicing (some husbands might prefer just ripping out a chunk if they are really hungry!).
6. Note: I have a gas oven, and always splash about 1/4 c water into the bottom of my oven just when I put the bread in; it seems to help it rise.
