Cereal Bread Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, pour the boiling water over the biscuits Stir in salt, shortening and molasses. Cool to lukewarm.
• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add this to the lukewarm biscuit mixture. Stir in the flour, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
• Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into three equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Brush tops of loaves with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Cover the loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, until bottom of loaves sound hollow when tapped.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine cereal, brown sugar, shortening and salt. Pour boiling mixture over mixture. Let cool to room temperature.
• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Combine cereal and yeast mixtures. Add eggs and two cups flour; mix well. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cover the loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in preheated oven until brown, about 30 minutes. Remove from pans and let cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine cereal and water. Cover and cook on high for 4 minutes (mixture will be liquidy). Stir in molasses and butter. Let stand until mixture cools to 120°-130°, stirring occasionally., In a large bowl, combine 4 cups all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, salt and yeast. Add cereal mixture to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Add eggs; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a firm dough (dough will be sticky)., Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Divide dough in half. Shape into loaves. Place in two 9x5-in. loaf pans coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes., Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

Steps:

• Scald milk,add sugar,salt,shortening and cereal; cool to lukewarm. Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water and add to cereal mixture. Add half the flour and beat until smooth.Add remaining flour or enough to make easily handled dough.Knead dough quickly and lightly until smooth and elastic.
• Place dough in greased bowl, cover and set in warm place, free from draft.Let rise until doubled in bulk,about 11/2 hours. When light, divide into 2 equal portions and shape into loaves.
• Place in greased bread pans. Cover and let rise again until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.Bake in hot oven at 425 degrees F. 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 degrees F. and finish baking about 30 minutes longer.

Steps:

• Put ingredients in bread pan in order suggest by your bread machine instructions. Set for whole wheat bread, medium crust. Press start.

Steps:

• Place ingredients in bread machine, using either the order given in your bread machine manual, or start with wet ingredients first and add dry ones last, ending with the yeast on top.
• Select basic bread setting if just letting the breadmaker bake it. (I've never tried it this way.) I like to select the dough setting, and form the bread or rolls myself.
• If the dough cycle was selected in the previous step, form the dough in desired shapes and placed in greased pan(s). This recipe makes about 15 rolls, 2 medium loaves of bread, or 1 large loaf and a few extra rolls.
• Cover dough with plastic wrap or floursack towel, and let rise in warm, draft-free spot. About 25 minutes for rolls, or 40 minutes for bread works for me.
• Make sure to pre-heat oven to 350* about 10-15 minutes before rolls/bread are to be baked.
• Bake rolls 12-15 minutes, bread 20 minutes. I've found that I can put the rolls in a light colored pan and the large bread loaf in a dark pan and they will come out at about the same time.
• If you want a loaf that isn't quite as heavy, you can do just 1 cup 9 grain cereal and 2 cups flour, and even substitute white flour for the oats. The more white flour you use, the lighter your bread will be, and you won't need quite as much yeast or vital wheat gluten.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, place the rye flour, plain flour, yeast, salt, water, linseeds, poppy seeds, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds.
• Mix together with your hands until it becomes a soft, pliable dough.
• Place the dough on to a lightly floured, flat surface and knead for five minutes.
• Return the dough to the bowl and leave to rise for an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F
• Shape the dough into a loaf, and roll the loaf in porridge oats.
• With a sharp knife, cut a line down the centre of the loaf. Place the loaf on a lightly greased baking sheet.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
