Cauliflower Sandwich Bread Recipe 465

CAULIFLOWER BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450º F.
• Line large baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly coat with spray. Set aside.
• Place half of cauliflower in food processor; pulse until cauliflower is chopped into pieces about the size of rice. Repeat with the other half. Place in microwave-safe bowl.
• Microwave cauliflower on high for 6 to 8 minutes, or until cooked.
• Place cauliflower on cheesecloth, in small batches; squeeze dry. (No cheesecloth? Use a heavy-duty paper towel.) Don't skip this step -cauliflower needs to be dry.
• Combine cauliflower, egg, cheese, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; mix well.
• Place cauliflower mixture onto baking sheet in four even portions. Form into squares.
• Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until golden. Cool for 10 minutes before carefully removing from baking sheet.

CAULIFLOWER SANDWICH BREAD RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Activate the yeast in 1/4 cup warm water, with sugar. Mix and let sit for 5 minutes or until frothy. Grate, pulse or rice the cauliflower and measure 1 packed cup. I put 1.5 loaded cups small florets in the Blendtec and it game me a cup of cauliflower rice. In a bowl, mix all the flours, salt, spices, grated cauliflower. Add the yeast mixture, oil and a 3/4 cup water and knead into a dough. Add more water if needed. I needed 2 Tablespoons more. Knead for 6-8 minutes. Spray water on top, cover with a towel and let the dough rise until doubled. 1.5-2 hours. Punch the dough down, use a tablespoon or so flour and shape into a jelly roll. Place seam side down in a bread pan. Spray water on top. Sprinkle Sesame seeds or oats. Cover with a towel and let rise for 45 minutes, or until close to doubled. The rise time depends on the ambient temperature, so as soon as the the bread has risen more than 1.5 time its original size, start up the oven to pre-heat. Bake in pre-heated 375 degrees F for 35-40 minutes. Take bread out and remove from pan. Let cool completely before slicing.

PERFECT SANDWICH BREAD

Steps:

• add yeast and a pinch of sugar (to feed the yeast) to warm water, let it sit 5-10 minutes until very foamy. water should be warm, but not hot, about 110 degrees.
• put proofed yeast into a large mixing bowl. add milk, honey, oil, and salt.
• add flour, start with 3 cups. mix with a sturdy spoon until smooth.
• add in more flour, one cup at a time until it gets to hard to stir.
• turn out dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes adding more flour as needed. dough should be smooth, elastic and not too dry, but not sticking to your hands either.
• put dough in a greased bowl and turn it over to lightly grease it. cover the bowl with plastic wrap and a towel (you can use a damp paper towel and towel if you don't have plastic).
• sit it in a warm place (like on top of the fridge) for 1-1 1/2 hours until doubled in size.
• cut the dough in half as equal as you can. punch dough down, getting all the air out. form into a rectangle and roll up tight, tucking in the ends. it should look like a small loaf.
• place each loaf in a greased (I use shortening) loaf pan. cover again and let rise 45 minutes until about doubled in size.
• if you choose, brush with the egg for a nice glossy look (i prefer it).
• bake at 350 for 35 minutes on the middle rack (leave room, they will rise more in the oven!).
• the bread is done when it's golden and sounds hollow when you tap on it.
• remove immediately from the pans and cool on a cooling rack so the bottoms don't get soggy (check to make sure it's done by also tapping on the bottom-it should sound hollow also).
• cool at least 10 minutes before cutting.
