Granola Bread Recipe

Granola Bread Recipe

2 loaves

Ingredients:

2 packages active dry yeast

3/4 cup warm water

2 tablespoons light brown sugar

1 1/4 cups buttermilk

3 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 - 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, divided

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

2-3 tablespoons margarine or butter, room temperature

1 1/2 cups low-fat granola

Buttermilk

Method:

Mix yeast, warm water, and brown sugar in large mixer bowl, let stand 5 minutes. Mix in buttermilk, all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt and margarine on low speed until smooth. Mix in granola and enough remaining 3/4 cup whole wheat flour to make a smooth dough. Knead dough on floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.

Divide dough into halves. Roll each into a rectangle 18 x 10 inches. Roll up, beginning at short ends, press ends to seal. Place loaves, seam sides down, in greased 9 x 5-inch loaf pans. Let rise, covered, in warm place until double in size, about 1 hour, brush with buttermilk. Bake at 375 degrees until loaves are golden and sound hollow when trapped, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from pans and cool in wire racks.
