Ingredients
8.1 oz (230 grams) strawberries, cut into pieces, divided1/2 tbsp instant yeast3 cups whole wheat bread flour1 cup rolled oats1/4 cup wheat germ1/4 cup psyllium fibre husks1/4 cup ground flaxseed3 tbsp whole flaxseed2 tbsp instant mashed potato flakes (optional, makes for tender crumb)1/2 tbsp salt1 cup low-fat soy (or dairy) milk, warmed1 cup warm water1/3 cup brown sugar1 egg1 tbsp olive oil1/2 cup (41 grams) strawberry-banana granola
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 and line two baking sheets with parchment.
Spread 2/3 of the berry pieces on one sheet and 1/3 on the other, keeping pieces in one layer.
Bake 35 minutes, then remove the sheet with the lesser amount of berries on it and rotate the other sheet.
Continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, until withered and slightly dried out. Set aside.
In a large bowl whisk together the yeast, flour, oats, wheat germ, psyllium fibre, ground flaxseed, whole flaxseed, potato flakes and salt.
In another bowl combine the milk, water and brown sugar, stirring to dissolve.
Add to the flour mixture and stir in to moisten, then add egg and beat well for 5 minutes.
Add olive oil and knead for 15-18 minutes, until elastic.
Cover and allow to rest 30 minutes.
Knead in the granola and roasted strawberries, trying to evenly disperse them throughout the dough. It will look like an impossible task, but they do all fit!
Cover and let rest 10 minutes.
Shape into a loaf and place into a greased loaf pan.
Cover and allow to rise until almost doubled, about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350F.
Bake loaf for 40-45 minutes, tenting with foil if the top browns too quickly.
