MAKE YOUR OWN EZEKIEL BREAD {GUEST POST}

Steps:

• Mix the first 8 ingredients in a bowl and grind in a flour mill (You may need to mill beans separately depending on your mill's instructions) This makes approximately 9 cups flour
• In large glass bowl mix whey (or water), honey, oil, and salt
• In another bowl mix the milled flour, yeast, milled flax seed, dough enhancer, and gluten until well combined
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and stir or knead 10 minutes either by hand, dough hook, or mixer (since this is a batter bread, it will NOT form into a nice smooth ball)
• Pour dough into 2 large (10x5x3) greased pans, 4 small loaf pans, or 2 9×13 pans
• Optional step: "Paint" an egg wash over top sprinkled with sunflower or sesame seeds, dried fruit pushed into batter is also optional
• Cover with towel and let rise in pans an hour or until dough is about 1/4 inch from top of the pan, but not much higher or it might overflow in oven
• Bake at 350 degrees 30-50 minutes until thermometer reaches 190F or a toothpick comes out clean (smaller pans takes 30 minutes; larger pans closer to 45)
• Remove pans from oven and place on cooling rack
• Run a knife around the edges and remove loaves from pans immediately
• Let rest on sides but don't cut into loaves until they've cooled at least 30 minutes

Steps:

• Place lentils in a small saucepan, cover with water and cook until soft. Drain and set aside to cool. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Place the cooled lentils in a bowl and mash. Mix in olive oil, honey, salt and remaining 4 1/2 cups warm water. In a large bowl, mix together whole wheat flour, barley flour, soy flour, millet flour and rye flour.
• Stir the yeast mixture into the lentil mixture. Beat in 2 cups of the flour mixture. Stir in the remaining flour mixture, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Briefly knead the dough and divide into four equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into four lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cover the loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until bottom of a loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
