I found this recipe on . I don't know who Dee is but I am grateful she came up with this recipe. My husband and FIL love it. My kids like it when I use it to make mini pizzas. Its full of fiber and you feel healthier eating it. Note: I have yet to mix all 4 cups of bread flour into the dough by hand. Also I put the dough into 4 loaf pans and they still come out great. I have put the dough in round casseroles dishes also. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons active dry yeast |
1 teaspoon white sugar |
1/2 cup warm water |
3 1/2 cups warm water |
1/4 cup honey (i sometimes use agave nectar) |
1/4 cup molasses |
1/2 cup vegetable oil (i use olive) |
2 eggs |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
7 cups whole wheat flour |
1/4 cup flax seed |
1/4 cup cracked wheat |
1/4 cup sunflower seeds |
4 teaspoons salt |
4 cups bread flour |
Directions:
1. In a small bow, dissove the yeast and sugar in a 1/2 cup warm water.
2. In a large bowl, mix remaing 3 1/2 cups warm water, honey, molasses, oil, eggs, and lemon juice. Mix well.
3. Add yeast mixture and stir.
4. Gradually add 5 cups whole wheat flour, beating well after each addition.
5. Add the flax seed, cracked wheat and sunflower seeds. Stir well.
6. Let stand for 20 minutes, until mixture is very light. Stir in salt and the rest of the flours until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
7. Knead 10 to 15 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic. Put into a greased bowl and cover. Let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until doubled.
8. Punch down and shape into 6 round balls. Cover and let rest for 20 minutes. Form in loaves and let rise covered until doubled. Bake at 375 degress for 25-35 minutes.
