Whole Wheat Bread Machine Bread

Submitted by MamaJen

"A great every-day bread, good for toast and sandwiches. I have dark, coated metal pans, so I bake it at 350. This came from a great frugality blog called Wanting What You Have. The author recommends putting the dry ingredients in a ziploc (in reverse order), then storing several batches in the freezer, to streamline the process. Prep time includes dough cycle on my bread machine and rising time."

 

• Ready In: 3hrs
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 1 loaf
• Serves: 14

ingredients

• 1 1⁄4 cups warm water
• 1⁄4 cup honey
• 1 tablespoon powdered milk

• 3 tablespoons wheat bran
• 1 cup whole wheat flour

1. Place ingredients in your bread machine hopper in the order listed. Make a small well to rest the yeast inches.
2. Coat a loaf pan with cooking spray and set aside.
3. Place hopper in the machine and select the dough cycle for a 1.5 lb loaf.
4. When the cycle has completed, turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface (I use a silicone baking mat with a light coat of cooking spray.) Shape the dough into a uniform loaf.
5. Place the dough into the prepared bread pan.
6. Cover with a damp towel and let rise to double it's size.
7. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
8. Bake the bread for 30-40 minutes, until the crust is browned and makes a hollow sound when tapped.
9. Allow to cool before slicing.

Bread was good. But there are better recipes on here for a everyday bread. I really like breads wth flax and bran added. Thank you so much for posting the blog address! I have really enjoying it! I'm going to use lots of her ideas! livingonadime.com is also a good site!
