Multigrain Bread (Bread Machine)

Submitted by duonyte

"A friend asked me to make a bread suitable for a person with acid reflux. I did a little research and came up with this loaf. Despite the varied ingredients, this makes a light loaf. Times are estimated."

 

• Ready In: 3hrs 15mins
• Ingredients: 14
• Yields: 1 1.5 lb loaf
• Serves: 12

ingredients

• 295.73 ml water
• 14.79 ml olive oil
• 7.39 ml salt
• 9.85 ml honey
• 473.18 ml bread flour
• 236.59 ml whole wheat flour
• 118.29 ml rye flour
• 59.14 ml regular oatmeal or 59.14 ml quick-cooking oatmeal
• 9.85 ml vital wheat gluten
• 11.09 ml active dry yeast
• 29.58 ml sesame seeds
• 29.58 ml raw sunflower seeds
• 14.79 ml steel cut oats
• 14.79 ml flax seed meal (ground flaxseeds)

directions

1. Place all ingredients in bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the dough cycle and start.
2. Check the consistency after 10 minutes or so, and add flour or water, as needed.
3. At end of cycle, remove from pan, shape as desired and place on parchment paper or on cornmeal sprinkled baking sheet. Let rise until almost doubled.
4. Slash and place in 400 deg. oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
5. Note: Feel free to substitute any combination of seeds or grains you find appealing. Substitute whole wheat if you have no rye flour. I'm sure this can also be baked in the machine, if you so wish.

Great bread. Made as written but only had regular oats. Loved it for breakfast this morning.<br/>Will be making this all the time.

Wonderful bread. Rose beautifully and great texture and crust when baked. I added caraway seeds as I love the taste of them and mixed this all in my KA mixer. This is going to be a staple on my bread making. Thanks for the great recipe.

Another wonderful bread hon. I would have sworn on a stack that I had rye flour in the house but found none so I used kamut flour in it's place. I also lacked all of the seeds that I would have happily used so I chopped an equivalent amount of walnuts and tossed them in. As others have mentioned I needed more water (1/4 cup for me). I'm madly in love with the very low sugar and fat content. It comes out beautifully risen with a lovely, slightly chewy, crust and a soft moist inside that light and delicious. I'm printing this wonderful recipe to keep in my folder where I put things that I want to make sure I don't lose. Great Bread!

A great loaf! Rises very nicely and is light. I didn't have sunflower seeds, and substituted 2 tablespoons of 8-grain cereal. I added 1 1/2 teaspoons of caraway seed. I used real pumpernickel flour from my local co-op ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpernickel ) instead of the plain rye flour specific in the recipe. The mixture was dry, so I added a total of 1/4 cup of water when I heard the bread machine "complaining." I baked the loaf on a 12-inch pizza pan, just the right size for this round loaf. <br/><br/>The description mentions acid reflux disease. Don't let that dissuade you. This is excellent, delicious bread that everyone will enjoy!
