Today I needed bread for tonight’s French toast, so I threw the ingredients into the bread machine to mix. I baked it in the oven instead of the bread machine, but was thrilled with the results. It was so light and fluffy – not something I’m used to with this much wheat flour in it. I’ve only tried this combination of ingredients once, but I’ll be playing with it more, that’s for sure.
Bread machine wheat bread
9 oz warm water
2 Tbsp soft butter
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsp sugar
1 heaping Tbsp vital wheat gluten
2 cups wheat flour
1 cup white flour
1 Tbsp yeast
Combine ingredients in bread machine pan in order instructed by your manufacturer. When dough is finished mixing, remove from pan, shape into a loaf, and put in greased loaf pan. Let rise until about an inch above the pan sides.
Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes (I lost track of time this time – I usually set the timer but forgot today).
I’ve been searching for the perfect bread recipe – one that uses no white flour but that is still light and soft. I know this still has some white flour in it, but it’s progress.
Thanks, Tori!
Sounds yummy!
Walmart. :O) It’s right near the wheat flour, with the specialty flours, ground flax seed, baking soda and powder, etc. It’s a fairly small box – enough for maybe a dozen loaves or so. I think I usually pay about $1.84 for the Hodgson Mills brand if I remember right. Hope you can find it!
Sounds good! Where do you get your gluten from? I’ve looked, but haven’t been able to find any.
