Ensure your bread machine paddle is securely in place in the machine's bread pan.
Add the warm water (around 110°F/43°C) to the bread pan first.
Add the honey and salt to the water, distributing evenly.
Carefully add the whole wheat flour to the pan. Ensure the flour covers the liquid completely.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant yeast into the well. Avoid contact between the yeast and the liquid at this stage.
Place the bread pan into the bread machine and secure it according to your machine’s instructions.
Select the ‘Whole Wheat’ setting on your bread machine. Choose a crust color of your choice (light, medium, or dark, based on your preference).
Start the machine and let it complete the entire kneading, rising, and baking process, which typically takes about 4 hours depending on the machine.
When the bread is done, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts as it will be hot.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy fresh whole wheat bread with no added fats, perfect for any meal!
