• 450g (3 cups) Whole Wheat Flour
• 1 tbs (12g) Dry Active Yeast
• 1 Cup lukewarm Milk
• 1 tsp Sugar
• ½ tsp Salt
• 2 tbsp Oil / Margarine
• Half cup lukewarm Water

Using these ingredients, follow these 12 steps to make a loaf of Healthy Whole-Wheat Bread:

1.  Take ½ cup of lukewarm water, dissolve yeast and sugar in it then keep it to foam up and rise for about 10 minutes.

2.  In a bowl now mix Whole wheat Flour, Salt, Milk, Oil and the risen Yeast to make very soft dough. (Add water when required).Keep on kneading the dough for about 10 to 20 minutes.

3.  Leave the bowl completely covered with a plastic bag for about 2 hours in a warm place.

4.  You will see the dough has risen to double now.

5.  Knead it again for a while dusting the dough with the extra Wheat Flour if required.

6.  Take a plastic container and grease it with a little oil and dust some wheat Flour over it – remove the extra Flour.

7.  Place the dough in the container and spread it to the shape of container removing the air from the dough.

8.  Seal the container again with a plastic bag and keep it in the refrigerator overnight.

9.  Take out the dough from the refrigerator the next day about 5 hours before putting it to bake in the microwave for about 5 minutes on high power.

10 Pierce the bread with a toothpick to check if the bread is ready. (The toothpick will come out dry and clean.)

11. Take out the bread from the container and cool it over a perforated rack.

12. Serve hot baked in a toaster.

The post [Video] How to Bake Delicious HOMEMADE BREAD in Only 5 Minutes! appeared first on Top Morning Recommendations.

This recipe is 100% whole grain, 100% healthy, super easy, soaked to reduce phytate problems, AND was divinely delicious.

Note about Soaking:
 

It’s a healthier option to make your grains more digestible. It breaks down phytic acid, a compound that draws minerals out of your system and hinders the absorption of the minerals in your grains.

Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make 40 perfect pancakes:
 

3 cups whole wheat pastry flour*
1 c. buttermilk or milk or yogurt**
1 c. water
¼ c. apple cider vinegar
¼ cup melted coconut oil***
4 lightly beaten eggs
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt

*This recipe works with all regular whole wheat, is much better with half whole wheat/half pastry flour, and is best with all pastry flour. I like to go ½ and ½ most of the time.

**Because you’re adding vinegar to the milk, it’s a “fake” buttermilk of sorts and hasn’t had a problem sitting on my counter overnight. Raw milk would be safest for this though if you choose to use milk. You can also use the dairy choice in place of the water for even richer pancakes. I have tried all three options, and I think the milk is the best one, but I often use homemade yogurt.

***Add this in the morning if you’d rather melt your coconut oil in the pan you cook your pancakes in.

Now just follow these 3 easy steps to make the batter for these perfect Soaked Whole-Wheat Pancakes:
 

1. Mix flour, buttermilk/milk/yogurt, water, vinegar and coconut oil.

2. Leave on counter for 12-24 hours to soak.

3. Just before cooking add eggs, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

These pancakes are so thick, yet light and fluffy, probably because of the bubbly reaction between the vinegar and the baking soda. You can’t taste the vinegar in the final product, by the way, just the pancake-y goodness.
