Low Carb Bread

Ingredients:

·        Dry yeast (bread machine) - 1 packet

·        Sugar - 1/2 teaspoon

·        Warm water - 1 1/8 cups (at about 100F)

·        Olive oil - 3 tablespoons

·        Baking powder - 1 1/2 teaspoons

·        Salt - 1 teaspoon

·        Splenda - 1 tablespoon

·        Gluten free wheat flour - 1 cup

·        Oat flour - 1/4 cup

·        Soy flour - 3/4 cup

·        Flax seed meal - 1/4 cup

·        Unprocessed wheat barn - 1/4 cup

Instructions:
- The recipe is for simple bread cycle but if your bread machine instructions call for a different setting for gluten-free flour you must use that cycle.

·        Clean the bread machine pan and dry it thoroughly before using.

·        Open the packet of yeast and put the contents in the bread pan.

·        Add the water and sugar and stir to mix.

·        Let it rest for some time to let the yeast ferment.

·        In the meantime, mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.

·        Pour the olive oil in the machine pan and add the dry ingredients on top of it.

·        Set the machine to run on the basic cycle and let it cook for 3-4 hours.

·        Cool in the pan for some time before removing from the pan and cooling on a wire rack.

·        Cut in slices to serve.

Tips:

·        You can add rye flour in place of soy and oat flour if you like the taste.

·        You can also add sunflower seeds or sesame seeds in place of flax seeds.

·        The small amount of sugar does not add to any extra calories as it is only used for the activation of the yeast.

·        This bread can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

·        You can use it in any bread dishes as normal bread such as a sandwich wrapper, toast, or simple bread and butter.

·        This bread also makes a great base for homemade pizza.
