HEALTHY WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
|
 |
Yield: 4 Servings
1/2 c Rolled oats (can be toasted First by putting thin layer In pan And baking at 350 degrees For 15-20 minutes, or until Lightly toasted) 1 pk RapidRise yeast 1 tb Sugar 3 tb Oat bran 2 tb Nonfat dry milk powder 1/2 c Cornmeal 3/4 c Whole wheat flour 1/4 ts Baking soda 3 tb Wheat germ
Mix above ingredients in a large bowl. Heat ingredients below until very warm (125-130 degrees) and stir into the dry mixture. 3/4 cup skim milk 2 egg whites 1/4 cup dark molasses Let the batter sit for about 20 minutes, or overnight in the refrigerator. You may want to add more milk or water to get them to the consistency you like, depending on whether you're going to turn them into waffles or pancakes. I have varied the dry ingredients radically, depending on what I have around the house. When I don't have molasses, I increase the amount of honey and other liquids. No matter what I do to this recipe, it always seems to turn out great. I estimate the fat grams per 7" x 7" waffle to be 3 grams, which can vary depending on the grains you use.

HEALTHY WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
|
 |
Yield: 1 servings
-Joyce Burton 2 c Whole wheat flour 1 1/4 c Buttermilk 1 1/2 c Bread flour 2 tb Sugar 1 tb Vital gluten 2 tb Canola oil* 2 ts Red Star Active Yeast 1 ts Salt 1 c Raisins; floured 1 tb Cinnamon
*I may have used only 1 tablespoon of the oil (can't remember). Since I like a lighter crust, I made this in my Zoji on the "Basic White Bread" setting with baking degree set on "Light," instead of on the "Raisin Bread Setting." I floured the raisins and added them 30 minutes after the kneading started. I know I had to add additional water, until the dough "looked right," but I didn't measure it. I may have added as much as one-fourth cup. This made a beautiful loaf....almost to the top of the pan. The next time I make it, I'll try to remember to write down the amounts!
