Buckwheat Oat Whole Wheat Bread

"My family has a real love affair going with this one. So far, the loaf has not survived to see room temperature--we scarf the whole thing while it's still warm. It would be great for toast or sandwiches....but so far it hasn't made it long enough to see those iterations. It's a dense loaf, but not heavy, and has a certain natural sweetness and toothiness to it that is really seductive. Prep time includes time for rising."

  • 4. Form dough into a ball and cover with a towel. Let rise 40 minutes in a warm spot.
  • 5. Shape dough into a loaf and place in a loaf pan that's been sprayed with oil or nonstick spray. Cover with a towel.
  • 6. Preheat oven to 400 degrees while the loaf rises for 25 minutes.

  1. This is a delicious, hearty loaf. It has an earthyness to it that I think would pair wonderfully with sunflower seeds - I think the crunch would be a fantastic texture addition. A couple of changes, though... the recipe says 1/4 cup water, and I realized when making it that this must be mistyped, so I used 1 1/4 cup water. I didn't have barley syrup, so I used 1 tbsp molasses, and 2 tbsp honey. I also wasn't familiar with lecithin granules, so after looking up substitues, I ended up tossing in an egg. Lastly, I tossed everything in my bread machine and set it to "dough", and forgot about it for a few hours. This is a wonderfully healthy loaf, Jujubegirl - I love it! Thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for PRMR Tag.
