Cracked Wheat Bread

This bread is mixed in the bread machine and then taken out and baked in the oven. We all love it.



1-1/4 c boiling water
3/4 c cracked wheat
1-1/2 tsp salt
1/4 c brown sugar
2 tbsp dried milk
2 tbsp oil
3/4 c whole wheat flour
2 c bread flour
2 tsp yeast

Pour boiling water on cracked wheat, stir and let sit until lukewarm. Add cracked wheat and remaining ingredients into the bread machine in the order listed. Use "dough" cycle. Check dough after a few minutes of mixing and add more water if needed. Once it is finished in the bread machine, turn dough onto floured surface and shape into a loaf. Place in greased bread pan and let rise. Bake @ 375º for 30-35 minutes, or until the loaf sound hollow when tapped on top. Spread butter over the top when it comes out of the oven. Take out of pan and cool on wire rack.

Simple Whole Wheat Bread

This is easy to make and REALLY good. I made 3 loaves today and we have already eaten one loaf and started into the second.



Ingredients:
3 cups warm water
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1/3 cup honey
5 cups bread flour
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/3 cup honey
1 tablespoon salt
3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions
In a large bowl, mix warm water, yeast, and 1/3 cup honey. Add 5 cups white bread flour, and stir to combine. Let set for 30 minutes, or until big and bubbly.

Mix in 3 tablespoons melted butter, 1/3 cup honey, and salt. Stir in 2 cups whole wheat flour. Flour a flat surface and knead with whole wheat flour until not real sticky - just pulling away from the counter, but still sticky to touch. This may take an additional 2 to 4 cups of whole wheat flour. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to coat the surface of the dough. Cover with a dishtowel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled.

Punch down, and divide into 3 loaves. Place in greased 9 x 5 inch loaf pans, and allow to rise until dough has topped the pans by one inch. Bake at 350º for 25 to 30 minutes; do not over bake. Lightly brush the tops of loaves with 2 tablespoons melted butter or margarine when done to prevent crust from getting hard. Cool completely.

Crescent Rolls

4 ¼ to 4 ¾ cups flour
1 package active dry yeast
1 cup milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup shortening, margarine, or butter
½ tsp. salt
2 eggs

Combine 2 cups of the flour and the yeast. Heat and stir milk, sugar, shortening, and salt just till warm (120 to 130 degrees) and shortening almost melts. Add to flour mixture along with eggs. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Using a spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough remaining flour to make moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total). Shape dough into a ball. Place dough in a greased bowl; turn once to grease surface. Cover and let rise in a warm place till double (about 1 hour).

Punch dough down. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. On a lightly greased surface, roll each half of dough into a 12-inch circle. Brush with melted margarine or butter. Cut each circle into 12 wedges. To shape, begin at wide end of wedge and roll toward point. Place, point side down on a lightly greased baking sheet 2 to 3 inches apart.

Cover and let rise in a warm place till nearly double (about 30 minutes).
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes or till golden brown. Makes 24 rolls.

Toast

I just receive this email from Susan Wadell Clark

Hi Aunt Karen,

This is my favorite recipe and about the only thing I cook-by choice.

Take tab off plastic

Open plastic and remove 1-2 slices of bread

Place bread in toaster and push down the toast button

Cook until it pops up on its own or starts to smell burnt remove from toaster and apply topping of choice (mine is butter, honey is good too)

Eat and enjoy.

Feeds one, but easy to cook more toast.
