Sprout Grains & Legumes:
Rinse all grains and legumes thoroughly. Soak in water overnight (8–12 hours). Drain, rinse, and place in a covered container. Rinse every 8–12 hours until small sprouts appear (1–3 days).
Grind Mixture:
Drain well and grind sprouted grains and legumes in a food processor until a thick, sticky dough forms.
Activate Yeast:
In a small bowl, combine ½ cup warm water and yeast. Let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.
Mix Dough:
In a large bowl, combine ground mixture, yeast mixture, salt, and honey (if using). Mix well. Add small amounts of water as needed to form a soft dough.
First Rise:
Knead dough for 8–10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1–2 hours (dough will rise slightly).
Shape & Second Rise:
Punch down dough, shape into a loaf, and place in a greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise 45–60 minutes.
Bake:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake 45–50 minutes until firm and golden brown.
Cool:
Allow bread to cool completely before slicing.
