I made this bread in the late 70s from a recipe in Mother
Earth News I think.

From memory:

2 cups of wheat berries (whole, unground wheat).

Place in bowl,cover with water, with about an inch of water
above the wheat and sprout for about two days - I sprouted mine
in the kitchen cabinet.

After it has started to sprout, drain off excess water and
form into a ball.

Bake for about 45 Mins at about 375 oF.

This is an unleavened, unkneaded bread, it is easy to make. It
is a heavy bread, like Danish rye, a little goes a long way.
