In a large bowl, combine 7-grain hot cereal mix, 1 1/2 cup boiling water, 5 T. honey-4 T. butter, salt.

Attach dough hook to mixer. Start on low speed.
Add flours to cereal mixture, one cup at a time.

Continue mixing till dough cleans the sides of the mixing bowl (you may have to add a bit more flour).
Remove from mixer and place on floured bread board.
Knead 5 minutes.
Clean mixer bowl.
Add 2 T. vegetable oil to clean bowl, tipping so that oil covers the bottom and part-way up the sides of the bowl.
Place dough in bowl, then flip it over so that oiled side is on top.
Turn on your oven light (this provides the warmth to proof your dough.
Place bowl in the oven. Close the door.

Place on floured bread board.
Separate in two pieces.
Knead each piece 5 minutes.
