Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 0.5 cups Warm water
- 0.33 cups Honey
- 4 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon Salt
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 1.75 cups Warm water (additional)
- 4 cups Unbleached all-purpose flour
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve 2.5 teaspoons of active dry yeast in 0.5 cups of warm water. Let sit for 5 minutes until the yeast becomes frothy.
Add 0.33 cups of honey, 4 cups of whole wheat flour, 1 tablespoon of salt, 0.5 cups of vegetable oil, and 1.75 cups of additional warm water to the bowl. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10 minutes, incorporating up to 4 cups of unbleached all-purpose flour as needed to prevent sticking. The dough should become smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 1.5 to 2 hours, until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough to release air. Divide it in half and shape each portion into a loaf.
Place the shaped loaves into two greased 9x5-inch loaf pans. Cover and let rise again for 45 minutes, or until the dough rises just above the edges of the pans.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the loaves in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the loaves from the pans and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
