Measure out all the ingredients, ensuring they are at room temperature before beginning.
Add the water, honey, and vegetable oil to the bread machine pan first.
Next, sprinkle the salt evenly over the liquid ingredients in the pan.
Carefully add the whole wheat flour and bread flour on top, covering the liquid entirely.
Create a small well in the center of the flour mixture without touching the liquid below and add Fleischmann's Active Dry Yeast into the well.
Secure the pan into the bread machine and select the whole wheat setting or basic wheat bread option, depending on your machine.
Choose your preferred loaf size and crust color (medium crust is recommended for this recipe).
Press start and allow the bread machine to knead, proof, and bake the bread.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts.
Turn the loaf out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Store in an airtight container or bread box to maintain freshness.
