I Eat Trees

Since I have a big bag of Daiya cheddar shreds living in my freezer, I’ve been thinking of countless ways to use them.  I was curious how these shreds would work in a bread, hoping it would give the loaf that “cheesy” flavor.  The result is a super delicious, moist bread.  It isn’t cheesy like you might think, but has a wonderful flavor and texture.  You could even add a bit more cheddar if you so desired!

Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 cups warm water
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 cup unbleached bread flour
• 1/4 teaspoon oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon rosemary
• 1/4 teaspoon sage
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 2 tablespoons brown rice syrup
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup vegan cheddar shreds
• 2 teaspoon dry yeast

Add ingredients in the above order.  Set bread machine to basic, 1.5 lb. loaf, normal.  Enjoy!
