It’s time to dust off that bread machine! You’ll have warm, fragrant, squishy, nourishing bread on your table with very minimal effort. You can set your machine and forget about it, but your machine, ingredient measuring, climate etc. might be a little different than ours. So, we also outline a few simple tricks below to make sure your loaf is on track. This is a wonderful everyday bread, perfect for sandwiches, toast and dunking in soups. It also cooks up beautifully as grilled cheese or French toast!
Sprouted grain bread really showcases the rich and naturally sweet flavour of sprouted wheat flour. Whole grain breads, while more nutritious than those made with refined flour, car be denser and dryer. Sprouted wheat flour results in a fluffy, moist texture while retaining all of the protein, fibre and nutrients from whole grains. Sprouting also reduces bitterness (saponin) and converts complex carbs into simpler sugars. This results in a lighter, sweeter taste with a low glycemic index. Our sprouted wheat flour is freshly sprouted and finely stone ground from organic Canadian wheat.
Every bread machine is slightly different, so you may need to make adjustments according to your machine. You can set this recipe and forget it and will still have a delicious loaf, but for more reliable results, here are a few tips and tricks:

Made this exactly to the recipe ( but I used maple syrup instead of honey as it’s easier to pour!) in a 2 lb Zojirushi bread machine and it came out perfectly. Thanks
Also with 2 tbsp of maple syrup?
Yes, you can swap the honey for maple syrup 1:1 (2 tbsp).
So delicious!
I’ve been trying this in Central Illinois and I think it’s over proofing in the Cuisinart Basic Bread Maker. I’ll need to mess around with the amount of yeast and using very cold water. Experienced pretty bad loaf collapse twice, and it wasn’t the water because I cut that back. Regardless, the first time I made it we loved it! I was lazy with the ingredients and made a happy mistake that let it turn out better than the other failed attempts.
Sorry it wasn’t working out for you! Every bread maker and brand of yeast is a bit different, I would cut back on the yeast, see if your bread maker has a shorter rise setting or if you have the time you can always remove it after the dough cycle to proof and bake outside of the machine. I hope it works out next time!
Thanks for the input. I am making my first loaf right now in my Cuisinart machine, so this is really helpful. If I want to bake it in oven, what is the temperature? Thanks. Love this site.
In the oven, bake at 350°F for 35-40 minutes.
Thanks! Here’s an update:
Bread turned out PERFECTLY in Cuisinart bread machine! Never had that happen before. I’ve always had to tweak the recipes. This flour and recipe performed flawlessly. My hubby is having his first sammie with this loaf. He says it tastes great. I will be using this flour exclusively from now on.
Thank You! (I may even try it in the oven at some point, but this bread machine is so darned easy).

I love this bread, so much that I’d like to adapt it for cinnamon raisin bread so I have more options with it. Do you think simply adding a couple tsp or so of cinnamon, extra sweetener, and raisins will work? Or will the modifications require additional changes to the basic recipe? Thanks for any insight!
Can I use butter instead of canola oil?
I usually use olive oil in this recipe, but butter should work too.
