                                             Gabi Bread - Original Recipe  1 pkg dry yeast (Rapid Rise/Highly Active)  1/2 teaspoon sugar *  1 1/8 cup "baby bottle warm" water (90-100°F)  3 Tablespoons olive oil  1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder  1 teaspoon salt  1 Tablespoon Splenda  1 cup Wheat Gluten Flour **  1/4 cup oat flour  3/4 cup soy flour  1/4 cup flax seed meal  1/4 cup coarse unprocessed wheat bran  Pour yeast into bottom of bread machine pan. Add sugar and water.
                                             Stir, and let sit. (This is "proofing" your yeast to see if your yeast is alive. If it's not bubbling, it's dead and you can
                                             replace it without wasting all of the other ingredients).  In the meantime, mix all other dry ingredients together in a
                                             bowl. Add oil to bread machine pan. Add mixed dry ingredients. Set your machine to the basic cycle (3-4 hours) and bake.  Cool on a rack and enjoy. SEE INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING BREAD WITHOUT A MACHINE AT BOTTOM
                                             OF PAGE  * The sugar is totally consumed by the yeast and does not contribute
                                             to the carb count. I keep a few packets of restaurant sugar on-hand for this purpose so I never have to have a supply of actual
                                             sugar in the house.  ** "I've had best results using "Bob's Red Mill: Vital Wheat Gluten Flour". Whatever brand you use should be 6 grams (no fiber) per 1/4 cup on label
                                             and approx. 75% - 80% protein. It works great, keeps the taste and texture just like bakery bread, and keeps the carb count
