Oat Bran Health Bread recipe

1 servings

1 1/2 cups water

2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast

2 tablespoons canola oil

3 tablespoons honey

1 1/2 cups oat bran

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

1 1/3 cups bread flour

1/2 cup flax seed meal

1/2 teaspoon salt

Add water, yeast, canola oil and honey to the pan of the bread machine; stir to dissolve yeast.

Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.

In a large bowl, stir together oat bran, whole wheat flour, bread flour, flax seed meal and salt.

Pour this mixture into the pan of the bread machine.

Select Whole Wheat cycle; press Start.

After the dough has risen, remove it from the bread machine and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.

Form into a loaf shape and place in a lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.

Let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
