Gorgeous bread Essene style, very tasty!
3 cup sprouted wheat berries, sprout 24 hours only
3 cup sprouted buckwheat, sprout 24 hours only
1 cup flaxseed, soak for 1/2 hour before using
5 carrots
4 apples
2 cup pumpkin seeds, dry
2 cup sunflower seeds, dry
The measurements are approximate because I never measure out this recipe, but they are not far off, and for this one, I don’t think it really matters.
In a food processor process the wheat berries. Let it go and go and go until it forms a dough and all the wheat grain is mashed up.
Put to one side in a huge bowl.Food process the buckwheat next, put in the big bowl.
Then do the apples and the carrots, letting them go into a puree.
Then mix in the flaxseed, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds, mix the whole thing together. I use my hands for this and get really lovely and messy :)
Spread out onto lined dehydrator trays. Usually about 1 cm thick.
Dehydrate, flip and dehydrate until totally dry.
Great with almond cheese.
Have you tried Raw sprouted wheatberries though?
it is only when wheat is heated that it becomes harmful to our bodies.
Just get a garden spray bottle filled with pure water and spray it. It should go softer, if it goes too soft put it in the dehydrator.
We are gluten free...can anyone think of something I could use to sub the wheatberries?
i made this and it came out really dry and not good :( is there anyway to salvage it?
I find buckwheat groats in the whole grains section of our local enlightened grocer (mustard seed market.)
I buy the buckwheat groats in the bulk rooms of my local health food stores. I have never seen it anywhere else.
Zoe - About how long do you dehydrate, and at what temperature (F)?
Lauraj -I think spelt would work with this.
elizabeth - measure sprouts after sprouting
Gypsy soul, I live in the UK, we can get buckwheat at every supermarket, ethnic food shop and health food shop. Is it hard to find in the USA?
zoe, do you measure the buckwheat and wheatberries 3 cups before sprouting or after?
Zoe - where do you find buckwheat to sprout. I have been looking everywhere and can't find it.

Can I use spelt berries instead of soft wheat/
Hi Zoe! This looks really good. Would you say it takes about 24 hours to bake with one flip in the middle? I'd like to try this in the near future but it looks pretty advanced. Have you ever tried any other essene bread?
This looks delicious!
Thanks Zoe, I can't wait to try it!
