SPENT GRAIN BEER BREAD
I am a homebrewer and brew all grain beer. As a byproduct of mashing 10+ lbs. of grain to make wort for beer, you have 10+ lbs. of grain to use. I hate to dispose of anything, especially food, I wanted to find a good way to use this leftover grain. I use some of the grain for this bread recipe and put the rest into compost for my outdoor plants. Really there is no true combination of grain, I just use whatever I used to brew beer with. It all gets mixed together during the mash so it is never the same blend, but that keeps it interesting!

- A) Split into two loaves and place in greased bread pans.
- B) Form into a round loaf and place on cookie sheet with a thin layer of corn meal under the loaf.
- Allow loaf(ves) to double in size, bake in 375 F oven 30 to 40 minutes until browned and a long pin, such as a turkey pan, comes out clean after being inserted into the center of the loaf.
