Nutrition Information: per serving, Calories 87; fat 1.3g; protein 2.6g; carbs 16.7g

Ingredients:

  • 2 packages active dry yeast
  • 3/4 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)
  • 2 tbs light brown sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 to 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2-3 tbs butter softened
  • 1 1/2 cups low-fat granola
  • Buttermilk
Instructions:
  1. Mix yeast, warm water, and brown sugar in large mixer bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Add buttermilk, all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, butter, mix on low speed until smooth. 
  2. Mix in granola and enough remaining 3/4 cup whole wheat flour to make smooth dough (dough will be slightly sticky).
  3. Knead dough on floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Divide dough into 2 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rectangle 18 x 10 inches. Roll up, beginning at short ends. Press each end to seal. Place loaves, seam side down in greased 9x5" loaf pans. Let rise, covered in warm place until double in size, about 1 hour.
  4. Brush tops of loaves with buttermilk. Bake at 375 degrees until loaves are golden and sound hollow when tapped, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from pans cool on wire racks.
