Here is the recipe for the DELICIOUS bread that Kale brought to our August Relief Society Activity:
4 cups warm water
1⁄2 cup honey
1⁄2 cup rolled oats
1⁄2 cup powdered milk
1⁄2 cup oil
2 tbsp. salt
2 tbsp. yeast
1⁄2 cup vital wheat gluten
6-7 cups wheat flour
In a Bosch mixer, combine the warm water, honey, oats, powdered milk, oil, salt, and 3 cups wheat flour. Mix 2 minutes until foamy. Add the yeast and vital wheat gluten, adding more wheat flour until you can see the clean curve of the mixing bowl. Be careful not to add too much flour as wheat flour takes time to
absorb the water in the dough. Knead 10 minutes, or until the dough pulls away and cleans the entire bowl. Pour some oil on a clean counter top then place dough on it turning it over once to coat dough in oil. Cover with a clean towel and let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
Divide dough into 3 loaves, and place into lightly greased bread pans. Place the loaves into an oven that’s been preheated to 150 degrees, then turned off. Allow loaves to rise 30 minutes or until the sides of the loaf pan are covered by rising dough. Turn oven to 350 degrees and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden, and loaves sound hollow when tapped on. Cool 10 minutes then remove from the loaf pans.
*If you are using a Kitchen Aid rather than a Bosch everything is the same except that the bowl will not clean as quickly. Put in all ingredients but do not exceed 7 cups of flour! Then allow to mix, it may take up to 20 minutes of kneading before it will clean the curve of the bowl. Then continue to follow directions as written.
