Like the title mentions, I'm searching for recipes to bake a dense bread. I have baked Spelt and it was delicious and exactly the density I was hoping for.

Are there any breads that exist with a bit of fiber and protein in them as compared to all carbs and sugar?

I have found recipes on allrecipes.com but I cannot tell what the ratios of nutrients are unless I put each and every recipe into the calculator on this site.

I'm hoping perhaps someone knows of a bread like I am searching for! :bigsmile:

    I don't have any recipes for that on hand, unfortunately, but on allrecipes.com if you press the Plus sign next to the nutritional information, you'll get a more detailed listing, which does (at least on the couple I checked) include calories, carbs, fiber, protein, fat, cholesterol, and sodium.

    Hope you find something!

    Edit: Just discovered that you can find better detailed information through a link after you click on the plus sign as well. And there should be a serving size listed.
    The samples I'm using are:

    Google Ezekiel 4:9 bread, usually found in the refrigerated section. one slice of the cinnamon raisin has:
    80 cals
    3 g protein
    2 g fiber
    18 g carbs

    ingredients; organic sprouted wheat, filtered water, organic raisins, org sprouted lentils, etc. AND IT TASTE GOOD...

    Whole Wheat Bread

    3.25 Cups flour( I use 1 C whole wheat and 2.5 ultragrain white wheat)
    3 1/2 Tablespoons vital wheat gluten
    1 teaspoon salt
    mix in a bowl, set aside

    mix 2 Tablespoons yeast with 2 teaspoons sugar, add 1 1/2 Cups warm water. Let sit about 10 mins till foamy.

    knead by hand or in stand mixer till stretchy and a smooth dough
    coat with a bit of oil and let rise on warm place till doubled, 30-60 mins

    shape on sprayed pans, let rise till doubled

    bake at 375
    45-50 mins for 1 large loaf pan loaf
    20-25 mins if you make 2 french shaped loaves
    13 mins for 3 oz rolls

    Oh, and I never entered the salt into MFP so that is off.
