Made some bread last night/ this morning guessing as the amounts of flour, water, yeast, honey and salt that Sunny mentioned above. See what happened here.

This is the kind of sugar free bread I purchase. It has no aspartame in it but does contain “natural flavors” and who knows what those may be! Even my picky kids eat this bread without batting an eye.

Here are the ingredients:
STONEGROUND WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR, WATER, MALTITOL, WHEAT GLUTEN, YEAST, CONTAINS 2% OR LESS OF EACH OF THE FOLLOWING: BUTTER *, SALT, DOUGH CONDITIONERS (SODIUM STEAROYL LACTYLATE, CALCIUM STEAROYL-2-LACTYLATE, MONOGLYCERIDES, CALCIUM PEROXIDE, ETHOXYLATED MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES, DATEM), CULTURED WHEY (MILK), VINEGAR, NATURAL FLAVORS, CALCIUM SULFATE, MONOCALCIUM PHOSPHATE, YEAST FOOD (AMMONIUM SULFATE)
* A TRIVIAL SOURCE OF CHOLESTEROL

Here is another recipe I found, though I am not as thrilled with it as the Aspen Mills stuff. I like to stay away from dairy when possible.

Aspen Mills Bakery out of Ogden, UT makes a bread that has no sugar out of five ingredients: Whole wheat flour, water, yeast, honey and salt. I really want to figure out the recipe and so far am disappointed, but I may try fudging with those ingredients to see if I can make it happen. If I can I may try to put the recipe on paper, but no guarantees.

As a sidenote my MIL partially subscribes to the raw food diet - the main way of ‘cooking’ food is dehydration - and I wonder what chefs of this ‘trade’ would do with whole wheat flour. I would like to incorporate this as much as possible but so far do not have the money to invest.

Sugar is used to react the yeast and decrease rise times. Time is money for commercial bakeries. I make mine without sugar in the bread machine, let it rise a little longer and bake it in the oven. It tastes great. I am used to bread without sugar because I am not from USA, where it seems adding sugar is a common practice. Corporate greed at its finest.

I don’t understand the mystification. I have been making home made bread all my adult life. It is no big deal. I use 2 tbsp yeast dissolved in water with a “pinch” of sugar. 2 tbsp salt and 4 cups water. I mix some water and flour until I get a gooey mix then I add the swollen yeast. I continue adding water then the rest of the flour (add flour until you get the right consistancy) Then place it in an oiled bowl and cover with wax paper until it rises double. Shape. let rise until double and bake at 400 f. (about 45 min) If you like more crust, lower the oven to 300f and leave the bread another 20 min. If you have a good quality mixer, it is so easy and you can freeze it for over a week and it will always taste fresh p.s. if you want no sugar at all, go ahead, just takes a little longer for the yeast to swell up
