HEALTHY MULTIGRAIN YOGURT & SEED BREAD (BREAD MACHINE/ABM)



Healthy Multigrain Yogurt & Seed Bread (Bread Machine/Abm) image

I based this off another yogurt bread recipe I found but made a whole bunch of tweaks. Using that King Arthur white-wheat flour is ideal but regular AP flour will do as will bread flour if you omit the wheat gluten. Hence I put in AP flour for the other flour type. Feel free to use a wheat or wholegrain setting on your bread machine but I prefer to bake this in the oven because it comes out with far better texture. Vegans, you can easily make this vegan using soy or almond yogurt and Earth Balance/Soy Garden. Regardless, it needs the yogurt or yogurt-like substance and a solid fat for the texture, oil won't do. This is also a versatile recipe, use any seeds and grains you like!! Like subbing sunflower for pumpkin seeds, amaranth for quinoa, etc. So long as there's 5-6 tablespoons, you're good. Feel free to try a mix or just one grain/seed! I put down prep time as 90 minutes since that's how long my dough cycle is.

Time 2h5m

Yield 1 2-lb loaf, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons vital wheat gluten
2 tablespoons wheat germ
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
1 tablespoon millet
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon flax seed
1 tablespoon quinoa, rinsed
2 teaspoons active dry yeast

Steps:

  • Put these ingredients into your bread machine in this order, or the order recommended by your manufacturer, then do a basic dough cycle. Set to 2-lb capacity.
  • When the dough cycle's finished, the result should be a nice brown glob of dough flecked with seeds, grains, and whatever else you put inches It should be very easy to mold and roll out but if it isn't, knead it on a floured surface until you can roll it out easily.
  • Lay a piece of parchment paper down on a cookie sheet. Mold the glob of dough into a large loaf.
  • Bake at 375F for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is browned.

WHOLESOME BIRDIE BREAD FOR PARROTS



Wholesome Birdie Bread for Parrots image

This is a healthy meal in itself--for parrots. I cut this up into daily portions and freeze them. Then each day, I just microwave a portion and feed it to our feathered friends. All I see from the birds is tails in the air when they have birdie bread in their bowls!

Time 1h

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (8 1/2 ounce) boxes Jiffy corn muffin mix (dry)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 cups oatmeal
4 eggs (with shells)
3 (6 ounce) jars vegetable baby food (sweet potato, carrots, potatoes, etc)
1/2 cup applesauce
2 tablespoons wheat germ
2/3 cup tahini or 2/3 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup cheese, grated
3 carrots, grated
1/2 cup broccoli floret, finely chopped
1/2 cup seeds (or pellets)

Steps:

  • Pre-Heat oven to 400.
  • Place muffin mix, oatmeal, and baking powder in large bowl and set aside.
  • Wash whole eggs thoroughly and place in blender (shells and all.) Add baby food, applesauce, and wheat germ, and puree.
  • Pour blended puree into your bowl of dry ingredients and stir with a large spoon. Stir in Tahini, cheese, grated carrots, and broccoli (if you have a fussy bird, you can puree these items in the blender in step 3.).
  • Spread mixture in a lightly greased 9 x 13" pan and sprinkle the seed (or pellets) over the top.
  • Bake for approximately 30-40 minutes. (Time may vary.) Let cool and cut into squares that are the size of a daily portion for your bird and freeze accordingly.
  • Defrost daily portions in the microwave before feeding. Depending on your bird, either crumble the birdie bread into their bowl (especially smaller birds) or give them talon size chunks (bigger birds).
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with the ingredients. The recipe is very forgiving. Instead of baby food, I sometimes substitute frozen mixed vegetables, a can of pumpkin, mashed bananas, or mashed sweet potatoes.
  • Instead of oatmeal, I often use cooked brown rice, baby rice cereal, or wholegrain Cheerios. Other things I've experimented with include chopped nuts, raisins, cooked lentils, chopped kale, pureed chickpeas, or pasta.
  • Tahini (sesame seed paste) is preferable to peanut butter, if you can find it. It's very high in protein and calcium.

OK, not birdseed really. Just reminds me of it. We love this for it's nutty flavor. It is a very substancial bread and makes a great piece of toast. I use 1 more T of millet and sunflowerseeds each and use rolled 6 grain instead of oats for us.

BIRD BREAD (BIRD FOOD)



Bird Bread (bird food) image

This recipe is from Bird Watcher's Digest. I prefer using peanut butter because it doesn't melt outdoors in the summertime like grease does and birds love it! Cooking time does not include overnight refrigeration.
