Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2.5 cups bread flour
- 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
- 3 tablespoons toasted wheat germ
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 teaspoons active dry yeast
Instructions
Add the water, honey, and vegetable oil to the bread machine pan, following your machine's manual on the order of liquid ingredients.
Next, add the bread flour, whole wheat flour, and wheat germ. Make sure the flour covers the liquid completely.
Sprinkle the salt evenly across the top of the flour mixture, being careful to keep it away from the yeast.
Form a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast. Do not let the yeast touch the liquid ingredients yet.
Place the bread machine pan into the machine and secure it as required by your model.
Select the Basic or Whole Wheat bread setting, depending on your machine, with a medium crust option, if available.
Start the machine and allow it to complete the kneading, rising, and baking processes.
Once the bread cycle is complete, remove the bread pan carefully using oven mitts and allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
