Brother Juniper's Struan Bread Recipe

• 1 c. Plus 2 TBS water
• 1/2 c. Buttermilk (could use soy lowfat milk with some lemon juice for vegan)
• 3 1/2 c. Flour
• 1/4 c. Polenta (corn meal)
• 1/4 c. Oats
• 1/4 c. Wheat bran
• 1/4 c. Brown sugar
• 1/4 c. Cooked brown rice (the fresher the better)
• 2 tsp Salt
• 2 Tbsp. Honey (could substitute more sugar and extra water to make it vegan)
• 2 1/2 tsp Yeast

1. My current favorite bread machine recipe is for Brother Juniper's Struan Bread from a fabulous book called Rustic European Breads for Your Bread Machine by Linda Eckhardt.
2. Look for this one in your local library.
3. I do not own the book and my library's copy is out so all I can give you are the measurements for a 2 lb loaf.
4. This bread keeps moist just like a bread with fat because of a secret ingredient-cooked brown rice.
5. Which is also the one drawback with this recipe in which you have to have cooked brown rice on hand.
6. I use short grain brown rice and cook it up while I am preparing breakfasts.
7. Short grain cooks up quickly.
8. I use my regular white bread setting.
9. A wonderful and nutritious bread!
