Wholewheat Bake
Filed Under pareve, dairy, vegetarian, breakfast, brunch, breads | Posted on October 13, 2006
Bake is a popular breakfast bread here in Trinidad. Hearty by nature, its heavy crumb it keeps you feeling satisfied for hours. Especially when taken with a savory topping. My version here, raises the fiber content through a healthy dose of wholewheat flour. Be sure to pay attention to the resting time and icy water, it’s necessary for tender results 
Recipe
1 cup white flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 oz butter (or margarine)
1 1/2 oz vegetable shortening
1 cup ice cold water
1. Sift flour with the baking powder and salt
2. Rub in the fats
3. Slowly add the water to make a smooth dough (dough will be sticky at this point)
4. Begin to incorporate enough wholewheat flour to make a smooth, dry, but elastic dough. Knead well.
5. Shape the dough into a bowl and allow to rest for 60 minutes
6. Preheat oven to 400F
7. After 1 hour, place dough onto floured board
8. Roll to a thickness of 3/4″ to 1″
9. Place dough onto a greased baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes
10. Serve hot, cut into wedges.
makes 4 - 6 slices

Nikki I realized that your second article is on a random loop. First is the Pastelle, everytime I refresh, there is a different article for second, and in third is the one with your pic of the Woodford square. How did yu set up the loop?
Hi Marsha
Yes the second post is always pulled ‘From The Archive’ .. i.e. a post that is at least 2 months old… it’s a good way to bring old posts back to attention. It’s a PHP script for the Wordpress blogging platform
