Ingredients

Directions

  1. Dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water (approx. 1/2 cup, not listed but required for yeast activation) and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, oats, vital wheat gluten, celery seeds, ginger, and garlic powder.
  3. Finely chop 3/4 cup of fresh celery stalks and 1 tablespoon of fresh celery leaves.
  4. Add the yeast mixture, vegetable oil, and 1 tablespoon of low-fat milk (or plant milk alternative) to the dry ingredients.
  5. Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then knead in the chopped celery stalks and leaves.
  6. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if too sticky.
  7. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  8. Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  9. Cover and let rise again for 30-45 minutes until the dough rises about 1 inch above the rim of the pan.
  10. Preheat oven to 375ðF (190ðC). Bake the bread for 35-45 minutes until golden brown and it sounds hollow when tapped.
  11. Remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
