Ingredients

1/2 cup cracked wheat

1/2 cup millet

4 cups boiling water

1/3 cup honey or molasses

3 tablespoons cooking oil

3 packages active dry yeast

1 cup chopped walnuts or sunflower seeds

1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

1/2 cup cornmeal

1/2 cup nonfat dry milk powder

1/4 cup wheat germ

2 teaspoons salt

7 - 7 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

1 egg white

1 tablespoon water

Directions

Combine cracked wheat, millet and 4 cups boiling water.

Let simmer, covered, for 5 minutes.

Cool to lukewarm.

Stir in yeast until dissolved

Stir in walnuts, oats, cornmeal, milk powder, wheat germ and 2 teaspoons salt.

Stir in flour to make a moderately stiff dough.

Knead for 6 - 8 minutes.

Place dough into greased bowl, cover, let rise for about 1 hour - until doubled in size.

Punch down, knead several times.

Divide in half. Shape into two loaves.

Place into 2 greased loaf pans.

Make slashes across top of each loaf.

Cover & let rise until doubled in size again - approximately 20 - 30 minutes

Optional: Combine egg white with water and brush tops of loaves before baking.

Bake in 375 degree oven for 40 - 45 minutes

Remove from pans & let cool

Enjoy!!!

**Additional notes: I mix this in my bread machine - just make 1/2 the recipe at a time. I use instant yeast - so only needs to rise once, and layer the ingredients as follows: yeast, sweetener, flour and other dry ingredients, water mixture and oil. It works beautifully, and ends up being half the work. I shape the dough into a loaf and bake in a conventional oven - I'm not sure how it would bake in the bread machine.

Mmmm This Bread with some melted Ementhaller & a glass of a full bodied red wine on coming in from playing out in the snow.
Is it better to refrigerate it or does it not even last long enough to worry about?
