Seven Grain Bread

Teresa Ambra
Seven Grain Bread is a delectable whole grain bread that's great for a dinner bread or for breakfast! This delicious whole grain cereal bread is so easy since it's made in the breadmaker. It has a nice and fluffy texture rather than being heavy or dense due to the use of vital wheat gluten. Wonderful served with jams and preserves.

Equipment

  • 1 breadmaker
  • 1 electric knife to cut down the bread into slices (or a sharp bread knife)
  • 1 pastry brush
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 1 2/3 cup hot water
  • 3 tbsp. powdered milk
  • 2 tbsp. avocado oil (can use Crisco shortening)
  • 2 tbsp. honey
  • 2 tsp. sea salt or kosher salt
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 1/2 cups bread flour
  • 3/4 cup dry seven grain cereal
  • 2 tsp. bread machine yeast
  • 4 tsp. vital wheat gluten

Instructions
 

  • Measure ingredients into bread canister in order listed.
  • Set for whole wheat setting.
  • Mine takes 3 hours 30 minutes.
  • Allow bread to cool about 15 minutes before removing from bread machine.
  • Butter top and sides so bread crusts don’t become hard or tough.
  • Allow bread to continue cooling on bread board another 15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

NOTE: Homemade bread has no preservatives and must be refrigerated after 2 days.
 
NOTE: all-purpose flour does not contain the necessary gluten to bond the ingredients together as well as bread flour. The bread may turn out crumbly. For best results use bread flour.
 
NOTE: I recommend using Fleischmann's yeast or bread machine yeast in any yeast bread recipe. Red Star yeast just doesn't work as well.
