EZEKIEL FASTING Grain BREAD
|
If you want to order the grains and beans to grind into flour yourself, that is the healthiest way to make this bread.
This is not the original sprouted bread. We are trying to get a good recipe for that. Ingredients Combine the following whole grains: * 2-1/2 cups hard red wheat * 1-1/2 cups spelt or rye (Biblically spelt was used, Ezekiel 4:9) * 1/2 cup barley (hulled barley) * 1/4 cup millet * 1/4 cup lentils (green preferred) * 2 Tbs. great northern beans * 2 Tbs. red kidney beans * 2 Tbs. pinto beans Stir the above ingredients very well. Grind in flour mill. (NOTE: all of these grains and beans can be ground in the WonderMill and Nutrimill or Vitamix with no problems)
Measure into large bowl (or one of the above mixers): * 4 cups lukewarm water * 1 cup honey * 1/2 cup Oil Add to liquids: * Freshly milled flour from the above mixture of grains * 2 tsp. Fine Celtic sea salt * 2 Tbs.. Yeast Stir or knead until well kneaded about 10 minutes. This is a batter type bread and will not form a smooth ball.
Pour dough into greased pans. You may use 2 large loaf pans (10x5x3) or 3 med. loaf pans or 2 9x13 brownie pans. Let rise in a warm place for one hour or until the dough is almost to the top of the pan. If it rises too much it will over flow the pan while baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes for loaf pans and 35-40 minutes for brownie pans. *For fasting, divide bread into 8 equal parts weighing 1/2 pound each. Eat a 1/2 pound cake and drink a quart of water every day. For fasting I do not alter the recipe. This is a very sweet, moist, cake-like bread. For a more traditional bread texture I have used this combination of grains in The Beckers Bread and Roll recipe. Replacing the 7 cups of flour with the 9 cups of flour from the milled grains in this recipe. You may also add fruits and nuts or use the flour made from this mixture in other favorite recipes. This healthy combination of grains and beans is worth experimenting with. Combining grains and beans makes a complete protein. |
