Oat Bran Prune Bread Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 package yeast
1 cup rolled oats (quick cook)
1 1/2 cup better for bread flour
2 1/4 cup oat bran
1 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
4 tbsp gluten
2 tbsp wheat germ
1 tsp salt (optional)
2 tbsp safflower oil (or any vegetable oil, )
2 tbsp honey (use ingredients at room temp, erature.)
2 egg whites
1 cup pitted prunes snipped into halves
1/8 tsp nutmeg (optional)
2 cup plus 2 tbsp very warm water
Recipe Preparation
"Would you believe that this is my (and my 13-year-old's) favorite
bread? Well, if you like prune danish, wait till you try this rich,
naturally sweet bread which is literally jam-packed with the soluble
fiber of both prunes and oat bran. It simply tastes like cake. Try
this bread just once and you're sure to be making it regularly."
Get ready for a 3-4 pound loaf. Place yeast in bottom of Auto Bakery.
Add rest of ingredients except liquid into the pan in the order
listed. Add 1 cup plus the 2 Tbsp of very warm water. Select white
bread and push "Start." Leave the lid open. After a minute as the
machine mixes the dough, add the remaining very warm water slowly.
This recipe is very large and may kick up some flour over the edge or
on the glass dome at the beginning. Adding the liquid slowly will
help prevent this. The pan will be very full and the bread won't rise
very much. But, it will be a tall loaf. If your rises too much, cut
down on the liquid. If it seems too dry, increase the liquid.
