looking for a recipe...

Toast

that would be considered a "low calorie" bread.  I like to make sandwiches during the week, and would like a low cal bread.  In all of my books, i don't see any such thing? 

 

Thanks!!

I think your choices will be very limited.  If you stick to a simple french bread which contains basic ingredients as well as slicing it thinly I think you will get what you want.

I don't have a recipe but Ovens of Manitowoc

http://www.naturalovens.com/

has some great high fiber bread that is lower in cal such as their Hunger Filler variety. They may be a good sample to start from to develop a recipe. They may use pea fiber or other vegetable fiber and despite how that sounds make wonderful bread with wonderful ingredients.If you email them, they may even send you a sample loaf, if there are no distributors in your area.

Otherwise, I would think a whole grain recipe with extra high fiber (brans of some kind or non-soluble fiber)would work but it may need more than a recipe. It may need a technique such as a long autolyse todevelop flavor and make sure the fiber absorbs enough of the moisture so you don't end up with crumbles.

Please post if you develop a recipe.

Thank you so much for your reply, I really appreciate the time you took to respond.  I am going to try making this tomorrow.  I love the variations you gave, they all sound yummy!
