How to Make Low Fat Wheat Germ Bread

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, wheat germ, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk (or milk alternative), oil, honey, and egg (or flax egg).
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the chopped nuts and raisins (optional).
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
