I wanted to post this on New Year’s Day in that we always start the New Year with Venison Sausage Biscuits! We were so busy that day and then I lost the SD card that had these pictures on it, but happily found it yesterday as I was organizing my files (my favorite thing to do! Yuck!!) I hope you and your family enjoy this as much as we do.

Stacy, we grind our own wheat and make bread. One of my daughters perfected it for us, but could you use your recipe and use our ground wheat? We do still experiment from time to time. That bread looks de-lish!
I hope you find your pictures. I had an uncle that died in WWII and we only have a few pictures. We used to have his uniform and helmet with the bullet hole through it, he died saving a friend. Over the years it all disappeared.
Blessings to you and your family.
Always Experiencing Him,

Thanks! To date, I still have not found them. I hate that you cannot find his helmet. Those pieces of history really are special. As far as the bread, I used white flour (a health no no), but we also grind oudr own wheat. I love the texture and the benefits of the ground wheat berries. If you put the berries in the grinder on the most fine setting and add a little more moisture to the recipe to make up for the high protein content of the whole wheat, you can use this recipe. I actually have an awesome recipe I love to make with both the white and red wheat berries that I will post soon. Isn’t it great to have a daughter that cooks the bread?! I love that!
As far as the healthy factor, I once heard a doctor share that if 75% of our plates are filled with living food, our bodies will easily eliminate the 25% less healthy from our bodies without harm being done to us. It seemed such a simple thing to aim for. With that thought in mind, I think there ought to be more than enough room on a dinner plate for a slice of hot bread dripping with melted butter – at least once in a while. The photography is so good! I find myself thinking that perhaps I need to ditch my original plans and bake bread this afternoon.
I love that Rebecca! The 75%/25% rule. Thanks for sharing that with me. The balance is fantastic and is so doable. I hope you made that bread and that it was wonderful and guilt free!!
Have you ever tried to make gluten free bread? Im looking for a good tasting bread for my wife (gluten free) need recipe. thank you Bo
I haven’t found one I just love…I will develop one and let you know when I post it.
Hi, Stacy! Can you please let me know what size loaf pans you use? I have both 8×4 and 9×5. I can’t wait to try this recipe!
It would work with both, but I used 8X4. Let me know what you think!
I used 8×4 and they came out great. Definitely adding this to the regular rotation. Thank you!
You are very very welcome!!
Stacy, Have you had any luck with coming up with a GREAT gluten Free bread recipe? Thanks!
Vicky, I haven’t tried many gluten Free bread recipes. I may give that a try. If I do, I will let you know.
