Multi-Grain Bread

Finally, I get to share a recipe with you. The wife has had me on pretty tight leash when it comes to sharing all our new recipes. She is working on this new 5 week meal plan, and she intends to put it all together and then, and only then, do I get to share the recipes here. Sheesh. I will however keep posting photos, because it just might inspire you to make something similar (wink).

Anyway, here is a recipe she did today in the bread machine that came out absolutely awesome.

Ingredients:

1 cup plus 4 Tbsp. water
2 Tbsp. margarine or butter, softened
1/4 cup honey

1 1/3 cups bread flour
1 cup minus 2 Tbsp. wheat flour
2 Tbsp. soy flour
3/4 cup 5-grain cereal
4 tsp. wheat germ
3 Tbsp. packed brown sugar
1 1/4 tsp. salt

2 1/14 tsp. regular active dry yeast or
2 tsp. bread machine yeast or quick acting active dry yeast

Procedure:

Add all of the wet items to the bread machine, then add all the dry items. Add yeast on top of the dry items. If you have made bread in a bread machine before you know this.

Set the bread machine on the basic dough setting so the machine would knead the bread and allow it to rise the first time.

Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf, placing it into a loaf pan.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 35-40 minutes.
