I love baking bread here is a recipe that I adapted from a King Arthur Flour - Oatmeal bread recipe! I make this in my bread machine, but you can totally bake it in the oven! It features Sprouted wheat, which is full of vitamins and minerals and easier to digest! I actually gave up bread for a couple of years and still only eat it occasionally, but this is my favorite homemade loaf!

Add ingredients in the order recommended for your Bread Machine!
Baked in my Zojirushi Virtuoso on the Regular Wheat Course!

Always check your bread when kneading to see if it needs more water or flour!
Tip: I always add the cold milk to water which I have above a lukewarm temperature! Save's a step!
Sugar can probably be reduced! I have not done this yet, but plan on trying it!
I adapted this recipe from: www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/oatmeal-sandwich-bread-re...

The bread looks so good!

Agreed! White flour and whole wheat flour aren't significantly different on the Harvard glycemic index. Speaking only about blood sugar, conventional thought that whole wheat bread is "better" can be misleading because unless the grain is whole, broken into large pieces or better yet sprouted it can still spike blood sugar. Once that starch is freed from the bran and the germ it's gonna burn! lol !

Sorry for the yada yada, I have suffered from blood sugar spikes and drops for most of my life. One of the very very worst offenders for me is oatmeal. Whole grain, lots of fiber, good for you, right? Within an hour I will be shaking and sweating. It's really frustrating. I envy those who can have a piece of toast or a bowl of cereal for breakfast! So why am I on a baking thread? Well I figured out I can eat baked goods later in the day and I'm fine!

I made the crustless quiche for supper last night. It was delicious.

When it came out of the oven it had risen double. It was beautiful to look at.

Thank you so much for the recipe.

My pleasure, I'm so happy you enjoyed it! I use the basic recipe and mix up the fillings with whatever I have on hand.

No it’s all blood sugar. I have no gi symtoms and as long as I eat it late in the day I seem to do ok. I mean I probably shouldn’t eat it at all, but I love the craft of making bread! By the way thanks for the sourdough tips, it’s covered and in the fridge and I want to try some crumpets just for fun.
