Basic, Light & Easy Whole Wheat Bread

Submitted by CookbookCarrie

"I foudn this on the net somewhere, and cant remember the site, but I know it wasnt here! If you recognize this, thanks for a keeper!!! This bakes up high and light and makes about a 1 1/2 to 2 lb loaf. I dont bake in my ABM, but I do make the dough in it. Cooking time is approximate"

 

• Ready In: 2hrs 10mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 12

ingredients

• 3 cups whole wheat flour (the good stuff)
• 3 tablespoons vital wheat gluten
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
• 1⁄4 cup honey
• 9 -10 ounces warm water
• 2 1⁄4 teaspoons yeast (1 packet, I use fleischmans)

directions

1. Put the ingredients in your ABM in the order your manufacturer recommends.
2. Dont use the rapid rise cycle on your machine as a longer, slower rise helps develop the flavor.
3. I use this for rolls or for loaves.
4. Enjoy.

I have new bread recipe!!!!! I do not have a bread machine so I did it the old fashioned way. ;) I let it rise once inthe bowl and once in the pan and baked it at 325º. So good!!!

Just right texture and crust. Used for sandwiches and toast.

This is a wonderful bread. I used the Whole Wheat setting, and it turned out perfect. Super easy to make, great taste and texture. I'm sure I will be making this over and over again. Thanks for posting. :)

This was very easy to make, I followed the recipe exactly using 9.5 ounces of water. I enjoyed it very much, but my husband said it left a weird after-taste in his mouth. I'm planning on making it again anyways though lol.. Thanks for the recipe!
