Here is the standard 100% white whole wheat bread for bread machines recipe from Bob's Red Mill flour:
Makes a small loaf:
1 cup water
2-1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1-1/4 Tbsp dry milk powder
1 tsp salt
1-1/2 Tbsp Canola oil
1-1/4 Tbs sugar
1 Tbsp gluten
2 tsp molasses
2 tsp active dry yeast
Add all ingredients in the order suggested by your bread machine manual and process on the bread cycle according to the manufacturer's directions.
Mrs. Mac's adaptation of same recipe:
1 cup buttermilk (or water or beer or combination)
3 cups whole wheat white flour or whole wheat flour
1/3 cup leftover cooked oatmeal ... or 1 small potato drained/diced/cooked/mashed (you could use the potato water in place of buttermilk)
1 tsp sea salt
2 Tbsp butter .. cut into pieces
1 Tbsp molasses or honey
2 Tbsp wheat gluten
2-1/4 tsp active dry yeast
1 Tbsp dried onion flakes
1 tsp dried dill weed
1-1/2 tsp caraway or dill seeds
2 Tbsp shelled pumpkin or sunflower seeds
Add the liquid and oatmeal or potato to bread machine bowl. Add remainder of ingredients. Use the dough setting. Watch the machine for a bit to be sure there is a good balance of liquid and dry ingredients. If too sticky ... and a tablespoon of flour ... or if too dry ... and a tiny bit of liquid. Once the dough has a good consistency, you're free to leave the room for the remainder of the dough setting. Once finished, remove the dough and place on a lightly floured board. Knead into a round shape and place on a greased baking sheet, cover and let rise in a warm place (cold oven with the light turned on) for about 30 minutes ... or until double in size. Bake in a preheated 350F oven on a middle rack for about 30-35 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for several hours until cool. Store overnight in a plastic bag and slice the following day. You can slice the same day ... but I find bread slices more evenly if left to rest overnight.
