Hey, cysters, you should all try
deesh76's bread. So easy to make and so good. I am eating a toasted piece of it right now. YUM!
THANK YOU DEESH FOR POSTING IT!
I added a chopped apple to mine, like she suggests. I can't wait to try blueberries. Also, as soon as the loaves come out of the oven, I take them out of the pan and wrap in very moist, clean dishtowels for about 10-minutes. This sort of "steams" them and makes the bread even moister. I do this with all breads that I bake.
Here's the recipe:
For regular bread I just eat a bread that is high in fibre (about 5grms per slice), made only with whole wheat flour, and no sugar. But I'm not doing a strict low carb diet. I am just eliminating white carbs and sugar.
But if you are looking for a bread recipe to have toasted in the morning then here is a recipe you might want to try. It is FANTASTIC. No sugar, no white flour, very high in fibre and vitamins. I eat it all the time and it does not seem to impact my blood sugars or weight loss. I just toast it in the morning and have it with a bit of no sugar added jam, or peanut butter.
You will need 2 regular size loaf pans or one that is extra long. It has no preservatives so it doesn't keep long. Freeze half of it until you are ready to eat it.
IRISH SEEDED BREAD
4 Cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 Cup Bran
1/4 Cup Wheat Germ
2 Tbsp Baking powder
1 TBSP Sesame Seeds
1 TBSP poppy seeds
1 TBSP flax seeds
2 TBSP flax meal (ground flax)
2 TBSP sunflower seeds
2 TBSP pumkin seeds
2 tsp cinamon
approximately 2.5 - 2.75 cups of milk (start at 2 cups and work up as needed)
Spray loaf pan with pam. (Remember, 1 long one or 2 regular ones)
Preheat oven to 350
Mix all dry ingredients in large bowl. Add enough milk to make a stiff dough, should be consistency of stiff porridge.
Place in pan(s) and bake for 1 hour or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Cool on wire rack.
Tastes really good if you add: 1/4 cup dried blueberries, or 1 chopped apple, or 1/4 cup chopped dried apricots.
Try it. You will be surprised. This recipe is really good, flavourful and moist, even though there is no sugar or fat in it.
