Delicious Whole Wheat Bread

This is our daily bread recipe. It's a double recipe which I usually make one loaf and use the other half for dinner rolls or buns or whatever I need. We have an excellent Manual wheat grinder. I just love the look of it! This recipe doesn't came out exactly the same with most wheat flour purchased at the store. I would recomend using a whole wheat pastry flour for the right texture. The bread is very light and tasty.

4 Tb. Honey
4 Tb. Olive oil
3 C. warm water
3 tsp. Salt
7 C. fresh Whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp. Citric Acid ( I use fruit fresh, can be found in most stores in the canning section)
6 Tb. Vital Gluten
3 tsp. Yeast

Place ingredients in bowl of large mixer, in order. Use dough hook to blend and then knead mixture until a firm but not stiff dough forms. Divide into two pieces and place in desired greased pans and or shapes. Let rise until doubled in size 30-60 minutes. Bake in 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes. Tip out of pan and thump the bottom. If you get a hollow sound it is done if not toss back in for 5 minutes.

I'm sorry I don't have any pictures. Always battling with downloading!


Enjoy! We always do.
