1 1/2 c Warm water
1 pk Active yeast
1/4 c Honey or syrup
2 tb Unrefined vegetable oil
1/4 ts Sea salt (optional)
2 Egg whites; beaten lightly
2 c AM Whole Wheat Flour
1 c AM Oat Bran
1/2 c Chopped nuts (optional)
Sprinkle yeast on top of water. Let set a minute and then stir to
dissolve. Add honey, oil, salt, egg whites. Stir in flour and beat
1 or 2 minutes by hand to develop gluten. Stir in bran and nuts.
Spoon into well-oiled 9″ x 15″ loaf pan. Set in warm place. Let
rise until doubled in size. Bake in preheated 375 F. oven for 25 to
35 minutes or until done. Cool before cutting. Loaf will be flat on
top because of the oat bran.
