Ingredients: 1 1/4 cups warm water (not pictured), 1 package active dry yeast, 1 tablespoons honey, 1 3/4 cups whole kernel wheat, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon lemon juice.
Place the whole wheat kernels in the dry container, securing the lid. Turn the machine on VARIABLE speed 1. Quickly increase the speed to 10 and then to high. Grind wheat for 1 minute, and then let it cool for a few minutes.
Combine yeast, honey, and the water in a bowl to proof for approximately 5 minutes.
Pour oil, lemon juice, and yeast mixture into the wheat flour in the blender container. To mix the dough, turn the machine on HIGH for 1 second. While the dough rests, grease a loaf pan. To kneed the dough in the machine, two steps are required; repeat the two-step process 5 times.
Step 1: Scrape the sides of the container with a non-stick spatula, pulling the dough at the sides to the center of the container.
Step 2: With the speed set to HIGH, turn the machine on and off quickly, 5 times.
Dump the dough into the loaf pan, scraping the container with the spatula if necessary. Shape the loaf with the spatula:
Let the dough rise about 30 minutes until it reaches the top of the loaf pan.
Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.
Each loaf makes 12 slices, and each slice has: 99 calories, 0 grams of fat, 4 grams of fiber, 2 milligrams of sodium, 0 grams of sugar, and 22 grams of Carbs...obviously not low-carb but pretty healthy (bread-wise) and no preservatives. Enjoy!
