sprouted wheat bread

[Guest guest]

For Sarah and others who've been looking for a sprouted wheat bread recipe

 

They say we can add sprouted wheat berries to " hearty " (high gluten) bread

doughs. The enzymes in the sprouts can make the dough rise un-predictably.

 

We can get this bread at the health foods store; about $3.50-4.00 a loaf.

It has a crunchy, chewy crust.

Sprouted Wheat Bread

 

Recipe By :SMART BREAD MACHINE RECIPES by Woodruff

Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Breads

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 tablespoon wheat gluten

3/4 teaspoon yeast

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1 tablespoon barley malt or honey

1 tablespoon lecithin granules or vegetable oil

3/4 cup water -- PLUS

1 tablespoon water

1/2 cup wheat sprouts

 

 

Put everything except the wheat sprouts in your machine's bread pan. Turn the

machine on the RISE/DOUGH setting so that it will mix, knead, and allow the

dough to rise once. Add the wheat sprouts after about 12 minutes, or when the

machine signals (if it has that feature).

 

After the dough has risen, turn it out of the pan onto a lightly floured surface

and shape it into a load loaf 5 inches in diameter. Place the dough on a baking

sheet covered with cooking spray.

 

Cover the dough and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size -- about 35

minutes. Brush the top with egg white glaze or skim milk, and cut 4 slashed in a

tic-tac-toe design across the top.

 

Bake 350F for about 25 minutes until the top is golden brown and the bottom

sounds hollow when tapped. This make 12 1.5-oz slices.

 

Yield:

" 18 ounces "

triticale can be sprouted and added to bread dough. Slightly sweet and chewy,

sprouts are rich in B-vitamins, minerals and fiber.
