Whole Wheat Guinness Oat Bread Food

OAT WHOLE WHEAT BREAD

Steps:

• Warm the milk in a small saucepan to no more than 100 degrees F (40 degrees C). Sprinkle the yeast overtop and let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes; stir in the sugar.
• Whisk the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oatmeal, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the center and pour the milk mixture into the well. Stir until the dough has pulled together. Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Lightly oil a large bowl. Place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.
• Grease 2 8x4-inch loaf pans. Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly-floured surface. Use a knife to divide the dough into two equal pieces - don't tear it. Shape into dough rounds and let rest for 10 minutes. Form the dough into loaves and place into the prepared pans. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown and the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

WHOLE WHEAT BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Combine yeast, honey, and 1¼ cups (300 ml) warm water and set aside to proof, about 5 minutes.
• 2. When starting with whole kernel wheat: Place wheat, and if desired, salt into the Vitamix Dry Grains Container and secure lid. Select Variable 1. Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High. Grind wheat for 1 minute. (Do not over process) Stop the machine and allow the flour to cool for a few minutes.
• 3. When starting with whole wheat flour: Place flour and, if desired, salt into the Vitamix Dry Grains or Standard Container and secure lid.
• 4. Select Variable 1.
• 5. Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 6. Blend until a hole forms in the center of the mixture, about 5 seconds. Turn machine off and remove the lid.
• 6. Pour oil, lemon juice, and yeast mixture into the hole in the flour. Secure the lid.
• 7. To mix the dough, turn the machine on High for 1 second. Stop the machine. Remove lid.
• 8. While the dough rests, lightly coat a loaf pan with vegetable cooking spray or shortening.
• 9. To knead dough, two steps are required: Step 1: Use a nylon spatula to scrape the sides of the container. Pull the dough away from the container sides and into the center of the mixture. Step 2: With the switch on High, quickly turn the machine on and off five times.
• 10. Repeat the above two-step process five times, or until the dough binds together in a soft elastic mixture.
• 11. To remove the dough from the container, turn the machine on and off five times (to lift the dough up and away from the blades). Invert the container over the prepared pan and let the dough fall into the pan. Use a wet nylon spatula to remove any remaining dough.
• 12. Use a wet (or oiled) nylon spatula to shape the loaf. Allow the dough to rise until the top of it reaches the top of the pan, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• 13. Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes. Makes one loaf.

IRISH GUINNESS BROWN BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• In a large bowl, combine the oats, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the beer, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into the well. With your fingers, stir the batter from the middle of the bowl to the outside, until it's well mixed. It will look more like cake batter than bread dough.
• Brush a 9 x 5 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan with melted butter. Pour the batter into the pan and sprinkle the top with oats. Put the bread in the oven, immediately turn the temperature down to 400 degrees, and bake for 45 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Turn the bread out onto a baking rack and allow to cool completely. Slice and serve with salted butter.

GUINNESS® BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
• Mix together the oats, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In a separate large bowl, stir together the butter, vanilla, buttermilk, and Guinness® beer. Pour the flour mixture into the beer mixture, and gently stir until well blended. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan, and sprinkle with additional oats if desired.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, then turn the temperature down to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and bake for an additional 30 minutes. Turn the oven off, open the door, and allow to cool for 30 minutes in the oven before turning out onto a wire rack.

IRISH BROWN BREAD WITH GUINNESS & OATS

Steps:

• 1. Make sure that the Guinness and buttermilk are at room temperature*. Heat the oven to 400 F. Grease a loaf pan (9 x 5) with butter. 2. In a bowl pour the Guinness. Add the melted butter, buttermilk and molasses and whisk until well combined. Set aside. 3. In another bowl combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda and powder and salt. Stir well together and make a well in the middle of the mixture. 4. Pour the wet ingredients into the well and stir into a batter. Transfer to the greased loaf pan, smooth on top and sprinkle with oats (optional). 5. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until nicely risen and a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the brown bread to cool down completely before you slice it.

WHOLE WHEAT BREAD - HOW TO MAKE WITH TANGZHONG METHOD

Steps:

• Measure the white flour in a small pot.
• Add cold water and place over low heat and heat it until the starch turns semi-translucent and thicken.
• Remove from heat. Let it cools before adding to the dough.
• Scale the water and the flour required into the mixing bowl.
• Mix gently to autolyze at room temperature for two hours. (Note: I found using only water and flour to autolyze yields a better result, so this step is different from what is shown in the video which aI made earlier.)
• After two hours, combine the water/flour with tangzhong, sugar, salt, and yeast, and butter.
• Use the food processor to blend it for one minute.
• Let it ferment at room temperature until it doubles its size.
• Divide the dough to the desired amount for each loaf. Rest for fifteen minutes.
• Roll out the dough and then shape it into loaves or buns.
• Let it rise at room temperature until it doubles its size.
• Brush the loaf with egg wash or water before baking.
• Bake the bread at 175°C/350°F.for thirty-five minutes or until the top turns golden brown.

OATMEAL BREAD

Steps:

• Add oats and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer or large mixing bowl. Heat milk to a simmer and pour on top, stirring to combine. Set aside for about 1.5 hours. Mixture should be at room temperature.
• Add honey, warm water, instant yeast, and salt to the bowl and stir well to combine. Add the whole wheat flour and mix on medium-low speed until combined. Add the all-purpose flour, a little at a time, until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Only add enough flour to make a dough that is soft, and not overly sticky (don't add too much flour!). Knead for a few minutes until smooth and elastic and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
• First Rise: Transfer dough to a greased bowl and cover with a dish towel or plastic wrap. Allow to rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
• Punch down the dough and divide into two equal pieces. Shape into loaves and place in two lightly greased loaf pans. Make egg wash and gently brush some over the top of each loaf. Sprinkle a small handful of dry oats on top.
• Second rise: Cover with a well greased piece of plastic wrap gently laid on top and let rise in a warm place until risen about 1 inch over the loaf pans, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Carefully peel off the plastic wrap.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 - 40 minutes. Loaves are done when tapping lightly on the tops produces hollow sound (or when instant read thermometer registers 200° F). Cool for 15 minutes on wire rack, then turn out of pans and cool completely.

WHOLE-GRAIN OAT BREAD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, cover steel-cut oats with the boiling water. Let stand until room temperature. Stir in bulghur wheat and honey; set aside.
• Place the warm water in a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast over water. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the reserved oat mixture with the yeast mixture, whole-wheat flour, and salt. Add the all-purpose flour until the dough is tacky, but not sticky. Continue kneading about 5 minutes more.
• Place dough in a buttered bowl, and cover with buttered plastic wrap directly on the surface. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 90 minutes, or refrigerate overnight.
• Turn out dough onto a clean work surface; form into a loaf about 9 inches long. Lightly mist with water; sprinkle with rolled oats. Place in a well-buttered 9-by-5-by-2 1/2-inch loaf pan; let stand until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.

100% WHOLE-GRAIN OATMEAL BREAD FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• M​ix oats and whole-wheat flour in a bowl. Add the boiling water and stir. Stir in the honey, molasses, oil, and salt and let cool to lukewarm (about 1/2 hour or more). It's OK if it's room temperature, too.
• To the bowl, add the 1/4 teaspoon of instant yeast, the extra water and 1 cup of whole-wheat flour (e.g., whole-wheat white flour from King Arthur ). Stir until flour is wet and dough is homogeneous.
• Add more flour, 2 tablespoons at a time, and stir until a firm but sticky dough forms. Knead in the bowl when the dough is too stiff for a spoon. If the dough is still sticky when you turned it onto a lightly floured board, wet your hands with cold water for easier handling.
• Pat the dough into a 1-inch high rectangle. Knead by folding the dough over into thirds (like a letter) and then patting or pulling it back into a rectangle. Don't turn the dough 90 degrees. You want the gluten strands to line up in straight rows, which is hard enough with all that oatmeal and wheat bran .
• Fold it 2 more times, then dust with flour and cover with a clean cloth on the board in a cool place in the kitchen. For example, you can leave it from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m., folding it 2 more times at 2-hour intervals.
• After 3 to 4 hours at room temperature, gather the ungainly dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and place it in a bowl in the refrigerator for up to 16 hours.
• Take dough out of refrigerator and fold 2 times on a floured board. Let rise until the chill comes off the dough and you see it get bigger in size.
• Form into a boule (round) or batard (long) shape, pulling the dough from the top to the underside and pinching closed on the bottom. Because of the oatmeal, this will not be smooth and the dough is still sticky at this point.
• Place the dough, top-side down, in a bowl (or on the baking sheet ) with a 1/4 cup of oatmeal in it and coat with oatmeal. Leave in proofing basket (e.g., a 2-quart Corningware vegetable bowl) until risen, about 2 hours. After the first hour, turn on the oven to heat to 450 F, preferably with a baking stone .
• Turn the loaf out onto a small piece of parchment paper or a floured baker's peel. Slash the top of the loaf with a sharp razor blade. You can slash a square pattern, for example.
• Place the loaf in the oven on the cornmeal- or flour-strewn stone and turn the oven temperature down to 400 F. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 190 F. Note: Those hard crusts you love are created with steam. You may create steam in the oven for the first 5 minutes. Heat an old roasting pan on the rack below the stone and pour 2 cups of boiling water in it right after you put the bread in the oven. Spray water the sides of the oven with a squirt bottle 2 or 3 times in the first 5 minutes. Turn oven down to 400 F and bake for 30 minutes or more until the internal temperature reaches 190 F. Bread steams itself dry, so let the bread cool for at least 2 hours before slicing or it may seem gummy inside.
