Healthy Whole Wheat Oat Loaf

I decided to make up my own recipe this time. I based it off a few different recipes in Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, but used a bunch of different things I had on hand that sounded good and felt like they would make a substantial and healthy loaf of bread. I think it came out pretty well. A nice sour hint, soft crumb, decent crust and color. Not bad for a first experiment. I used a little starter, yeast, salt, honey, rye, whole wheat, oat bran, flax seeds, and whole oats. I think it will make nice sandwiches and it is plenty good with a touch of butter.

Whole Wheat, Oat, Raisin Scones

I found a nice scone recipe at a new favorite blog Farmgirl Fare for whole wheat, oat and raisin scones. It uses white whole wheat flour, which is a little lighter than regular WW flour, and which I happened to have in the house. It is so nice to get up in the morning and realize you already have all the ingredients in the house for scones. We had them warm from the oven with butter and some homemade pomegranate jelly from a friend at work (thanks Dave!).
