Here's the recipe for the bread we learned to make last Thursday night. Thanks to April for hosting the mini-class and for sharing her recipe. I love that it uses food storage items and that it is "Jake safe."
Two things I learned...First, if you're using canned spray to grease the loaf pans buy the kind that has flour. Make sure it is evenly sprayed. Second, for nicer size loaves I think I will try to do four or five loafs next time. Half of the six I did were kind of small. Great for toast in the morning. :) Enjoy!
Easy Wheat BreadFrom April Gould
6 cups warm tap water
¾ cup applesauce (for oil)
¾ cup honey
3 TBSP active dry yeast
10 cups fresh ground whole wheat flour (1/2 #10 can wheat kernels)
2 TBSP salt (add last – it inactivates yeast)
7 cups white flour (or wheat) until dough no longer sticks to side of bowl
Optional: can add oatmeal or flaxseed before you add the last 7 cups of flour.
You probably won’t need the full 7 cups then.
Directions:
1. Add all the above ingredients in Bosh/Kitchen Aid, mixing sporadically.
2. Turn on over to 350 degrees (start when bread goes into pans)
3. Divide dough and place into 5-6 greased loaf pans (use flour spray).
4. Bake loafs for 35 minutes or until golden brown.
