This Ezekiel bread is the bread that Ezekiel lived off of while he was in the desert for two years. It is supposed to be nutritionally complete. The recipe calls for grinding your own flour from a variety of grains and dried beans.

Ingredients

4 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 cup honey
½ cup olive oil
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
2 ½ cups wheat berries
1 ½ cups spelt flour
½ cup barley
½ cup millet
¼ cup dry green lentils
2 tablespoons dry great Northern beans
2 tablespoons dry kidney beans
2 tablespoons dried pinto beans
2 tablespoons salt

Directions

Mix water, honey, olive oil, and yeast in a large bowl. Let sit for 3 to 5 minutes.
While yeast mixture sits, stir together wheat berries, spelt flour, barley, millet, lentils, great northern beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans together until well mixed. Grind in a flour mill.
Add fresh milled flour-bean mixture and salt to yeast mixture; stir until well mixed, about 10 minutes. The dough will be loose like a batter bread.
Pour dough into two greased 9x5-inch loaf pans.
Let rise in a warm place until dough has reached the top of the pan, about 1 hour.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bake in the preheated oven until loaves are golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes.
