Dave's Cracked Wheat Bread--IDNO similar recipe

Blue Savannah · 02-04-2012, 11:30 AM

My picky eater likes Dave's Cracked Wheat bread. I would love to duplicate it as closely as possible at home.

Ingredients: whole wheat (flour and cracked wheat), water, evaporated can juice, gluten, oat fiber, canola oil, molasses, yeast, sea salt, cultured wheat.

Is this from the same bakery as "Dave's Killer Bread"?

That's right!

RiverRock · 02-04-2012, 01:45 PM

Hmmm....you have inspired me to try tweaking a recipe I have to see if I can get a nice soft, sweet, whole wheat bread. I'll come back with results, and hopefully have a recipe to share.

I was hoping someone else had posted a recipe.

I went to my local mill and bought the flours and wheat kernels I need. I couldn't find "cracked wheat" at the store, so I need to make my own.

Well. . . I'm out of bread, so I'll play around.

Wish me luck.

This looks similar. I think I will use cracked wheat and oat bran instead of seeds/nuts?

But what do you think is the "cultured wheat"?

Could it be similar to a sourdough starter? I wondered if letting the bread rise overnight would give it a bit of a "cultured" taste.

I'm also wondering how important the "cracked wheat" is to the recipe, since the description on Dave's website if that it's a whole wheat bread without the seeds and crunchy bits.

quote from site:
"A Killer Bread for those who don't like all of the extra grains and seeds, but want a delicious 100 whole-wheat bread with 5 grams of fiber!"

Can you see or feel the texture from either the oats or the cracked wheat in the bread? It it soft and chewy bread? I've only had the original and 12 grain breads.

Blue Savannah, I checked your link and that recipe calls for a lot of yeast. A Tbsp. of instant yeast is more than my 5 loaf recipe of potato bread calls for (fresh in my memory because I made it a few days ago). It probably rises quickly.
