Recipe: Whole Grain Batter Bread (Arrowhead Mills recipe)

WHOLE GRAIN BATTER BREAD
Yield: 1 loaf

1 1/2 cups warm water
1 pkg active yeast
1/4 cup honey or syrup
2 tbsp unrefined vegetable oil
1/4 tsp sea salt (optional)
2 egg whites; beaten lightly
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup oat bran
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Sprinkle yeast on top of water. Let set a minute and then stir to dissolve. Add honey, oil, salt, egg whites. Stir in flour and beat 1 or 2 minutes by hand to develop gluten.

Stir in bran and nuts. Spoon into well-oiled 9x15-inch loaf pan. Set in warm place. Let rise until doubled in size.

Bake in preheated 375 degree F oven for 25 to 35 minutes or until done. Cool before cutting. Loaf will be flat on top because of the oat bran.

Makes 1 loaf
