• 1 1/3 Cups Water
• 2 Tbsp. Applesauce or Canola Oil
• 3 Tbsp. Honey
• 1 tsp. Salt
• 3 Tbsp. Vital Wheat Gluten Flour
• 3 2/3 Cups Whole Wheat Flour
• 1 Tbsp. Active Dry Yeast

In mixer bowl, combine water with applesauce or canola oil, honey, and half of combined flour mixture. Mix on high for 4 minutes. Add remaining flour (and additional water if necessary), and mix until dough forms a ball that pulls away from sides. Let rest 5 minutes. Turn onto floured board and knead 1 minute. With your thumbs, make a hole in the center to form a donut shape and place in a mixing bowl that has been sprinkled with a little flour. Cover with plastic wrap and micro-rise until doubled. Place dough on a lightly floured board; roll and stretch into an 8 inch circle, about 1 inch thick. Place on baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal and set aside to rise until puffy, about 10 minutes. Spritz with cooking spray and sprinkle with coarse salt or one of the toppings below. Just before baking, press fingertips into the dough to make deep dimples. Baked in a preheated 400 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Tear into chunks or serve in wedges.

• 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
• 1/4 Cup Raw Sugar
• 1/2 Cup Raisins
• 60 Grams Margarine

Preheat oven to 180 degrees F. Prepare a flat oven tray so it is non-stick. Place flours, baking powder, cinnamon and raw sugar in a mixing bowl. Chop raisins and add to the dry mixture. Stir margarine into dry mixture and add water. Mix until a “stiff” dough is made. Roll into balls and flatten with a fork. Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until golden brown. Makes about 12 cookies.

Note:
Anything with rice flour tends to crumble so try self-rising flour that will give a result similar to baking with regular flour.
