Have you ever tried making ‘sprouted grain bread’ in a bread machine?

Right now I have soaking in jars of water – steel cut oats, millet, quinoa, brown rice, sunflower seeds, pecans, walnuts, and unpopped popcorn -not sure it will soften up) I want to run those through the blender to grind them up and put them in the bread machine with some regular oats, rice flour, organic white flour, whole wheat flour and 4 teaspoons gluten. Also a pkg of yeast and some stevia, raw sugar and olive oil. Somebody please tell me what you think before I gather all my courage and go do it !

You will really have to watch the liquid in this mix as the sprouts will give off liquid as they cook. Why don’t you just use the dry millet, sunflower seeds, walnuts and pecans in a nice wheat bread recipe, adding about a tablespoon of each. The other bread ingredients you mention would be fine, but add water of course. Use the sprouts in a salad or on a sandwich.
Try Flax seed, 1-2 teaspoons per loaf or use flax meal to replace 1/4 cup of white flour.Be sure to use the “light” crust setting as flax will brown quickly. Soy flour is another option.
