This is a quick and easy bread is great for low carber’s it’s a modification of the super low carb bread found in the cusinart bread machine cookbook.

1.5 lb loaf about 24ozs, because I am diabetic and currently EXTREMLY carb/glucose intollerant, meaning my blood sugars get REALLY high with any carb I take, even high fiber breads. So I measure 1oz on a food scale of this bread for me. But for most people 1 20z slice should be just fine. Just watch your total fat content, as this bread is seriously YUMMY but not super low fat, but it will fill you up!

Ingredients

• 1.25 cups  filtered pure water
• 2 tbsp heavy cream, room temp
• 1 tbsp molasses
• 1/2 tsp table salt
• 1 cup whole wheat/whole grain flour (King Arthur flour and Bob’s red mill are my fav brands)
• 1/2 cup vital wheat gluten (Bob’s red mill)
• 1/2 cup barley flour ( ground up 1/2 cup barley flakes/oats in food processor, until powdered, save the leftover in a plastic baggie in freezer)
• 1/2 cup oat flour ( ground up 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats in food processor, until powdered, save the leftover in a plastic baggie in freezer)
• 1/2 cup almond flour ( place 4oz whole raw almonds in food processor until it is a course meal)
• 2 tbsp soy protein powder
• 1/2 cup scant flax seed meal (scant means a little less then the actual dry cup measure)
• 1/4 cup walnuts
• 1/4 cup pecans
• 2.25 tsp active dry yeast

Method:

Add ingredients in order listed in your bread machine. It’s usually liquid ingredients first, then salt, flour, nuts and yeast. Set bread machine to basic white for 1.5 lb loaf, choose the crust style you want I did medium. Each serving is 1oz by weight! you must measure this on a scale. Most slicing guides will have you slice 2 or more ounces, if you have glucose intolerance/blood sugar issues!
