Chewy Bread For A Bread Machine



2 cups vital wheat gluten
1 package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (comfortably warm on your wrist, not hot)
1 egg
2 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons Splenda

I dumped it all in my bread maker, and let it knead the dough. It did not rise much during the resting time, but as it baked, it rose so much it pushed the top of the bread maker up a little bit.
I could take it out of the bread machine after kneading and divide it into two small loaf pans to rise and then bake in the oven.
It made a beautiful brown loaf, but did fall somewhat as it cooled. About 5 grams of carbohydrate per thin slice
