Low-Carb Yeast Bread  

 Note: Make 1 standard 1 1/2 lb loaf (8 1/2 x 4" x4") 16 slices=4.8 g ea; 20 slices=3.85 g ea; 22 slices = 3.5 g ea, based on flour being 65g.)

 Ingredietnts:

1 c high gluten flour
1/2 cup wheat bran
1/4 c heavy cream
1/2 cup warm water
2 pkts yeast
1 t salt
2 t sugar (the real stuff)
2 T oil

Mix hot water and cream and pour into bread machine (or mixing bowl) pan. Add in yeast, sugar and salt and stir to mix for a second. Let sit for 5 min to let yeast proof. Mix flour and bran and add to water/yeast mixture. Let bread machine mix (or use whatever method you normally use) and let rise one time. (If not using bread machine, let rise in warm, draft free place for 1 hr. Punch down dough (may be slightly wet to touch, but suntill "doughy," not "batter-y". Place in bread pan and let rise for 60 min. Bake at 350 for 25-35 min. (person who came up with recipe let rise 2nd time in her oven and did not disturb it - just turned on the oven when it rose about the pan).

I dumped everything into my bread machine based on the bread machine directions. It only rose about 2" total, but is a great tasting bread with a regular wheat bread texture. I found it a little salty and would cut the salt next time. The crust is real "crusty".
