Well, I just felt compelled to share this recipe! I absolutely love Dave's Killer Bread. I mean, who doesn't right? Good Seed is my choice and so I set out to make my own version at home. I just need to do a side by side taste test but you guys can tell me what I should change instead. That is short of the sprouted grain flour because I just don't feel like make it (or buying it!). I did however sub 1 cup emmer grain flour and 1 cup bread flour because I was short on whole wheat flour. Let me know how your version goes! Here's the recipe with a little help from the bread machine as a time saver for me.
1 ¼ cups warm
water
2 Tbsp white sugar
2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp molasses
1 egg beaten
3 Cups Whole Wheat
¼ cup quinoa
¼ cup or more
sesame seeds
¼ cup raw
sunflower seeds
¼ cup flax meal
¼ cup whole flax
seeds
¼ cup Irish
Oatmeal (something hard)
¼ cup old
fashioned oats
2-3 Tbsp cracked
wheat
¼ cup packed full
Vital Wheat Gluten
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp instant
yeast
Use bread machine
on dough cycle. Pull out when finished and shape for loaf pan. Heat
oven to 350. Let rise until size is suitable and bake for 25-35
minutes in a large loaf pan.I really enjoyed the crumb. The egg gives it a bit of fluff, yet it isn't in Dave's bread, but I needed it. I also over fill all my seed cups and even dump extra in and then roll the bread in seeds before I drop it in the loaf pan for it's final rise. The wheat gluten really gives it some stretch and could maybe use more depending how much whole wheat you use. And lastly if it doesn't cook long enough it will be kind of gummy inside. That's a tell tale sign to bake it longer next time. Still good to eat though! And really yes you do need the molasses. Happy Baking!!
