I'm desperate for a good recipe for 1 loaf of multi-grain bread not made in a bread machine (I've worn out 3 of them and can't really afford another). I don't mind if it has 1 to 1 1/2 cups of white flour but I want to incorporate different grains and seeds. So much of what I find isn't true multi-grain or it makes more than 1 loaf (I'm the only one here that eats healthy so more than one loaf won't keep).

I have "developed" my own multi grain bread recipe.
It is "created" from a whole-wheat honey oatmeal bread recipe because I did NOT have good luck with my bread machine. It is basic but HAVE been able to use my old bread machine bread pans for a great loaf of bread. Please write eloise_gulick@hotmail.com and I will send it to you.
The recipe is sort of involved and lengthy - have also adapted it to make a great yeast raisin bread as well.
If someone has a recipe for this that DOES use a bread machine, I would love to have it.
Arthritis prevents me from kneading bread dough most of the time.
Anna, I'd hate not having a bread machine, and my brother bought one from a friend who was having a yard sale. It was an old model but had hardly been used at all, and she sold it to him for $2.50. If you shop the yard sales and thrift stores you should be able to find a killer deal on one. I usually just use mine to knead and rise the dough, then bake it on a bread stone in the oven. This saves a lot of work.
Sorry I don't have any recipes for whole-grain bread, but mostly what I make is sourdough and occasionally cranberry-nut or buttermilk, cheddar, and pepper breads. I've been looking into various types of rye bread and plan to try some soon. I especially love Pumpernickle and may experiment with creating a sourdough version of it.
One *BIG* suggestion I have for you: use wheat gluten. This is especially true with whole grain breads, because without it they won't rise very well. I add it to all the breads I bake, and it really does make a difference.
Good luck, and happy baking! - Alph
I have a recipe tried and true that I am willing to share. Eloise Gulick
I no longer need a recipe.
I see that you don't need a recipe any more. But as I was reading the comments, I wondered, hasn't anyone heard of heavy-duty mixers with dough hooks? I never use a bread machine, but I do use my Bosch kitchen machine which does all the kneading for me. I can make a batch of 5 loaves of bread (instead of one in a bread machine) and freeze them.
