even better sandwich flats

Last night I tinkered with the original sandwich flat recipe and I think the new recipe is a winner!

I'd picked up some of Bob's Red Mill High Fiber Cereal, since I couldn't find any 12 grain flour, and substituted much of the whole wheat flour with it. It's a nice semi-ground coarse flour, with oat groats, flax, oat bran, and wheat bran. It gave the sandwich flats a better texture, without the bitterness that I noticed in the all-whole-wheat recipe.

3/4 cup cereal flour mix ( or 5, 7, or 12 grain flour)

3/4 cup whole wheat flour ( I used King Arthur)

1 packet dry yeast

1 1/4 cups warm water

Mix together in mixer bowl and let sit for 15 minutes.

Add:

3 T. canola oil

3 T. honey

1 t. fresh lemon juice

1 t. salt

1 cup King Arthur all purpose flour

1 cup King Arthur whole wheat flour

Mix well. If too sticky, add more of the cereal mixture flour - I added almost another half cup.

Knead with a dough hook for a few minutes.

Sprinkle two cookie pans with some of the cereal flour.

Pull off knobs of dough and roll into sandwich flat size discs.

Place six flats to a sheet.

Place flats into UNHEATED oven for about 20 minutes to slightly rise.

Remove pans and preheat oven to 350F.

When oven is heated, place one pan in oven and bake for 20 minutes.

Remove to cooling rack and bake the second pan.

If you plan on freezing these, let cool completely before placing in freezer zipbags.

Enjoy!
