Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day: 100 New Recipes Featuring Whole Grains, Fruits, Vegetables, and Gluten-Free Ingredients

Bavarian-style Whole Grain Pumpernickel : page 115
I feel that a recipe like this was included in the book because the authors got multiple requests for a pumpernickel recipe. My own belief is that it's VERY difficult to make the pumpernickel you get from a good bakery - it takes a sour mash starter and lots of work. Instead using caramel coloring and 5-minute bread techniques these authors have attempted a substitute. And it is clearly a pale & inferior sub, not the real thing; but I don't blame them, I think they were just trying to offer people something they'd requested. Personally, I would not go to the trouble again, I'll buy the much more delicious bakery version.

Oatmeal Date Bread : page 151
An excellent, sweeter bread. I'm not kidding myself that it's incredibly healthy, but it does include some whole grain flour & oats.
