Add flours, salt,and the soaked bean & grain mixture stir well, about 10 minutes with a mixer and dough hook. Add more water as needed The dough should be like that of a batter or quick bread.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 to 50 minutes, or until loaves are golden brown.I use a gas convection oven, so you may neat to check your bread with a clean tooth pick
