I was asked by my Oncologist to eat brown bread instead of white bread. To be honest I am not a fan of bread , I like to bake bread just like I love baking cakes but not a fan of cake. I just find making them therapeutic. Making bread and cakes makes me happy. Hubby loves bread and cake so that being explained why I have been baking cakes and bread. But since my chemotherapy journey I have abstained from eating rice. So my base food is Oat Porridge and brown bread to go with veggies and meat dishes. I don't eat brown bread daily. I shared them with hubby and I make small portion each time.
Having said that I begin my journey of making my own brown bread since healthy bread are expensive over here where I lived. Organic Multi grains bread and Whole Wheat bread are costly if I have to eat them as base food daily. Of course brown bread is carbo too but it has lower glycemic value and more fiber content compared to rice and white bread. I tried many recipes on wholewheat bread but they didn't turned out as good as this lastest one.
I am so happy to have found this recipe on You Tube. It is sugar free and 100% whole wheat. The method used is to prepare a Whole Wheat Soaker and Whole Wheat Pre-Ferment overnight. It is one of the most easiest method of preparation. Next morning,just use a cake mixer with dough hook and knead all ingredients into a smooth dough. Then proof the dough in a warm place ( 1 hr) or till doubled in size. Then divide dough into equal portions and shape into round balls. Proof another 40 mins . Bake at 180c for 13 mins. ( Every oven is diff. - for me it takes 18 mins of baking time). The buns turned out soft, spongy and fragrant. A keeper for sure and I have to thank You Tuber ' Sweet Kitchen' for sharing such an awesome Sugar free 100% Whole Wheat Bun recipe. Sharing is caring.
