WGB # 20 Whole Wheat Multi Grain Cinnamon Raisin Bread

This is a great tasting Whole wheat bread,the addition of the optional cooked grains in the soaker  pushed it over the top. There is just enough cinnamon flavor. The 6oz of cooked grains added a considerable amount of moisture, which required another 1 + 1/2 cups of ww flour to adjust the dough. i started with 3 oz total dry weight of cracked wheat, red bulgar, and whole flax seeds cooked together till tender.And 3 oz total weight of whole wheat berries,brown rice,and a gourmet rice and wild rice mix,cooked till tender. The cooked grains were 18oz in weight due to the cooking.I weighed off 3 oz of each and froze the rest for a future use.  
The biga and soaker did not have to be chopped as there was enough moisture in the soaker to mix them together .Kneading went as directed,as well as proofing and shaping. I had sufficient dough to make 2  7x3 pans of bread, which i prefer as a sandwich size,and allows for giving away the 2nd loaf or freezing for another time.  Here are the photos of the finished bread........
