Basic Whole Wheat Bread Recipe

Gloria here. :) So many of our recipes are based in the Basic Whole Wheat Bread Recipe, I thought I'd post it here so it is easier to find. 

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup warm water

1/3 cup oil ( I use extra virgin olive oil)

1/4 cup honey

1 beaten egg

2 tsp. salt

1 Tbsp. gluten

5+ cups of fresh milled whole wheat flour (store bought is fine, too)

1 Tbsp. yeast

Directions:

Add the ingredients in the order given to your bread machine. Set the bread machine on the dough cycle and let 'er go!

When the dough cycle is complete, spray 2 bread loaf pans with Pam or grease them with butter. Cut the dough in half and flop into the pans. Yep, I said flop! They will come out fine! 

Cover the pans and let rise until double, about an hour. 

Bake at 350 degrees (F) for about 29-30 minutes until golden brown. (Ovens vary.)

Remove immediately from pans and cool on a cooling rack. Bag when completely cooled. 

This recipe is adapted from the Sue Beckers recipe for Whole Wheat Bread, find her here.

Enjoy!!
