Plus, Ezekiel Bread is also tasty, tender, and actually pretty easy to make (hooray for no-knead, low-proof bread)! Spread a little butter or margarine on a slice of this and you'll start feeling a little more wholesome and healthier in no time!

Ingredients
- 4 cups warm water, about 110 degrees F
- 1 cup honey
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 (0.25-ounce) packages active dry yeast
- 2 1/2 cups wheat berries
- 1 1/2 cups spelt flour
- 1/2 cup barley
- 1/2 cup millet
- 1/4 cup dry green lentils
- 2 tablespoons dry great northern beans
- 2 tablespoons dry kidney beans
- 2 tablespoons dry pinto beans
- 2 tablespoons salt
Directions
Step 1 -Grease two (9x5-inch) loaf pans.
Step 2 -In a large bowl, add the water, the honey, the olive oil, and the yeast and mix to combine.
Step 3 -Let the yeast mixture sit undisturbed until it starts to bloom, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 4 -In a separate bowl, add the wheat berries, the spelt flour, the barley, the millet, the lentils, the great northern beans, the kidney beans, and the pinto beans and mix until well-combined.
Step 5 -Grind the barley mixture in a flour mill.
Step 6 -Add the fresh milled flour mixture and the salt to the yeast mixture and stir until a dough forms, about 10 minutes. The dough will be loose.
Step 7 -Pour the dough into the prepared loaf pans.
Step 8 -Cover the dough pans and let them rise in a warm place until the dough has reached the top of the pan, about 1 hour.
Step 9 -Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 10 -Bake the loaves in the preheated oven until they are golden-brown, about 45-50 minutes.
Step 11 -Allow them to cool slightly, about 5-10 minutes.
Step 12 -Transfer the loaves to a wire rack to cool completely, about 40 minutes.
Step 13 -Slice one or both of the loaves and serve immediately. Store the Ezekiel bread at room temperature for up to 3 days. After 3 days, slice and freeze the bread, allowing you to thaw individual pieces as needed.
