12 Grain Bread
6 C warm tap water
2 C nine grain cracked cereal mix
1/4 C millet
1 C raw, sunflower seeds
1/4 C sesame seeds
1/2 C wheat gluten
2/3 C honey
2/3 C canola oil (I use light olive oil)
2 T salt
3 T yeast
3 T dough enhancer
2 T lecithin (optional)
12-14 C whole wheat flour
1. Combine water, cereal mix, millet, sunflower seeds and sesame seeds in Bosch mixing bowl. Cover with lid and let rest for 10 minutes to soften grains.
2. Add oil, honey, salt, dough enhancer, gluten, about 6 C flour and yeast to grain mixture. Mix at speed one until a smooth batter is formed.
3. Add remaining flour one cup at a time until dough cleans from the sides of the bowl. Do not go over speed 2.
4. Continue to knead until dough is smooth and elastic, the total mixing time is between 10-12 minutes.
5. Divide into loaves and allow to raise until doubled in size.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
A couple of tips:
1. Add the oil first then honey, the honey will fall right out of the measuring cup because of the oil.
2. To check if you have enough flour in the dough tap your fingers in flour then touch the dough, if it doesn't stick, it's done.
