Ingredients

• 0.5 cups Cooked wild rice
• 1.25 cups Water
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 cups Bread flour
• 1 cups Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cups Oat bran
• 2 tablespoons Dry milk powder
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast

Directions

Step 1

Measure all ingredients carefully and ensure the cooked wild rice is at room temperature before use.

Step 2

Add the ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, liquids (water, olive oil, and honey) go in first, followed by dry ingredients (salt, bread flour, whole wheat flour, oat bran, and dry milk powder).

Step 3

Spread the cooked wild rice evenly over the dry ingredients to avoid clumping.

Step 4

Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the active dry yeast. Do not let the yeast come into direct contact with the liquid ingredients.

Step 5

Insert the bread pan into the bread machine and close the lid securely.

Step 6

Select the Basic or Whole Wheat bread setting on your bread machine, depending on your model. Choose the medium crust option if available.

Step 7

Start the bread machine and allow it to knead, rise, and bake the bread according to the selected setting.

Step 8

Once the baking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts, as it will be hot.

Step 9

Turn the bread out onto a cooling rack and let it cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
