GRAIN Bread Recipe
In a small bowl mix the following ingredients. Heat to about 100 degrees just enough heat to melt the butter and honey. Mix with electric mixer to dissolve the egg. Sprinkle the yeast on top let is dissolve for 10 minutes. Stir in the yeast set aside for 15 minutes or until it begins to foam.
1 cup water
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons butter
In a second bowl mix the following ingredients.
3 cups of bread flour
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 cup quick quaker oats
2 tablespoon Hersheys cocoa
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup corn meal
In a 1 cup measuring cup fill it with your favorite grain. Here are some suggestions. Double or triple each one to get 1 full cup of grain.
1 tablespoon chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon seasame seeds
1 tablespoon flax seeds
1 tablespoon sun flower seeds
1 tablespoon chopped barely seeds
1 tablespoon millet seeds
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1 tablespoon celery seeds
1 tablespoon broccoli seeds
1 tablespoon carrot seeds
1 tablespoon roasted pumpkin seeds
1 tablespoon graded carrots
Mix the seeds into the second bowl of flour then add the first bowl of liquid. Knead bread dough until it become stiff. Knead every 15 minutes for 1 hour. Let it rise until double in size.
If your using a bread machine follow the direction of the bread machine for adding the yeast. I like to use a bread machine only for mixing.
This recipe makes 2 loaves of bread, or 1 large round loaf, or about 30 dinner rolls.
Coat the outside with oil sprinkle the top with your flavorite seeds then bake at 350 deg F for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and coat the outside surface of the bread with butter.
