Mix the warm water, honey, and yeast in a stand-mixer bowl until mixture becomes foamy, about 5 minutes. Add half the whole wheat flour, olive oil, and salt to the mixture. Mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until incorporated. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes. Mix with a dough hook attachment on low speed, slowly adding the remaining whole wheat flour, increasing the speed to high. Mix on high until the batter is combined and not sticking to the sides of the bowl, about 7 minutes. Cover the bowl with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Flour a surface to work the dough. Place the dough onto the floured work surface and shape into a loaf. Use more flour if necessary. Place into the prepared loaf pan. Let shaped dough sit in a warm place until it has risen over the top of the pan, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake in the preheated oven until top of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 to 20 minutes before removing from the pan and transferring to a wire rack. Let cool an additional hour before slicing; otherwise it will feel doughy.

  1. Combine yeast, honey, and 1¼ cups (300 ml) warm water and set aside to proof, about 5 minutes.
  2. When starting with whole kernel wheat: Place wheat, and if desired, salt into the Vitamix Dry Grains Container and secure lid. Select Variable 1. Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High. Grind wheat for 1 minute. (Do not over process) Stop the machine and allow the flour to cool for a few minutes.
  3. When starting with whole wheat flour: Place flour and, if desired, salt into the Vitamix Dry Grains or Standard Container and secure lid.
  4. Select Variable 1.
  5. Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 6. Blend until a hole forms in the center of the mixture, about 5 seconds. Turn machine off and remove the lid.
  6. Pour oil, lemon juice, and yeast mixture into the hole in the flour. Secure the lid.
  7. To mix the dough, turn the machine on High for 1 second. Stop the machine. Remove lid.
  8. While the dough rests, lightly coat a loaf pan with vegetable cooking spray or shortening.
  9. To knead dough, two steps are required: Step 1: Use a nylon spatula to scrape the sides of the container. Pull the dough away from the container sides and into the center of the mixture. Step 2: With the switch on High, quickly turn the machine on and off five times.
  10. Repeat the above two-step process five times, or until the dough binds together in a soft elastic mixture.
  11. To remove the dough from the container, turn the machine on and off five times (to lift the dough up and away from the blades). Invert the container over the prepared pan and let the dough fall into the pan. Use a wet nylon spatula to remove any remaining dough.
  12. Use a wet (or oiled) nylon spatula to shape the loaf. Allow the dough to rise until the top of it reaches the top of the pan, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  13. Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes. Makes one loaf.

In a large bowl, mix warm water, yeast, and 1/3 cup honey. Add 5 cups white bread flour, and stir to combine. Let set for 30 minutes, or until big and bubbly. Mix in 3 tablespoons melted butter, 1/3 cup honey, and salt. Stir in 2 cups whole wheat flour. Flour a flat surface and knead with whole wheat flour until not real sticky - just pulling away from the counter, but still sticky to touch. This may take an additional 2 to 4 cups of whole wheat flour. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to coat the surface of the dough. Cover with a dishtowel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled. Punch down, and divide into 3 loaves. Place in greased 9 x 5 inch loaf pans, and allow to rise until dough has topped the pans by one inch. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 to 30 minutes; do not overbake. Lightly brush the tops of loaves with 2 tablespoons melted butter or margarine when done to prevent crust from getting hard. Cool completely.

In a large bowl, whisk the water, honey, and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes, until the yeast has bloomed. NOTE: It may be tempting to use all whole wheat flour in this recipe, but, in our testing, that method resulted in dense, tough, squat breads that barely rose when we tried to proof them. Using some all-purpose flour was necessary to give us the rise and soft, pillowy texture we wanted in a good sandwich bread. Pour in the wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oil, and salt, and mix until the dough comes together in a ball that does not stick to your fingers. NOTE: You can also do the first 2 steps in a standing mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment, mixing on low speed until the dough no longer sticks to the sides. On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough a few times until it really starts to form a tight ball. Form the dough into a ball shape and transfer to a greased bowl, turning the dough to coat it in grease. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a wet towel and store in a warm place for 1 hour. Allow the dough to proof until it has doubled in size. Save the plastic wrap or towel as you’ll be using it again. Transfer the proofed dough to a lightly floured surface and press the dough - don’t stretch - into a 7x7-inch (18x18 cm) square. Fold the top 3rd of the square down, and the bottom 3rd up to form an even rectangle. Pinch the top fold to seal the dough. Roll the dough over so that the seal faces upward and fold both ends up toward the center, so that the dough has formed an even log shape about the size of your loaf pan. Transfer the dough to a greased loaf pan and cover with with the same plastic wrap or towel used before. Let the dough rise for 1 hour, until it has poofed over the edge of the loaf pan about 1½ inches (4 cm). Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove the plastic wrap or towel and transfer to the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, until the dough has browned slightly and formed a light brown crust. Immediately remove the loaf from the pan and set aside to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing. Store in an airtight container or bag. The bread can be stored in freezer up to 6 months. Enjoy!

In a small mixing bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the milk, vegetable oil, whole wheat flour, 1 cup of the all-purpose flour and the salt; beat well. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Grease two 8x4 inch bread pans. Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into the pans. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush the risen loafs with lightly beaten egg. Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 30 minutes, or until the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

In saucepan, heat milk not to boiling. Remove from heat and add sugar, salt and 1/4 cup butter, stir until blended. Cool to lukewarm. Sprinkle yeast over water in large bowl. Stir to dissolve yeast- stir in lukewarm milk mixture. Add 4 cups whole wheat flour, beat vigorously with wooden spoon until smooth. Gradually add remainder of whole wheat flour. Mix in last of it with hands until dough is stiff Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface. Knead dough for about 5 minutes until dough is smooth and has some elasticity. Place in greased large bowl. Turn dough so greased side is up. Cover with towel; let rise in warm place (85F is good), until it doubles in size, about an hour. Turn dough again on floured surface. Divide into halves. Cover about 10 minutes. Cut each of the two halves into two pieces. Roll each piece into about a 12 inch strip. Twist two strips together. Repeat the process. Roll into a ball to fit into a 9x5x2-3/4 greased pan. Mold evenly into pan. Repeat process with remaining two pieces. Brush tops of two loaves with a little butter, margarine or oil. Let the two loaves rise in a warm place until dough rises to tops of pans- about an hour. Preheat oven 400F. Bake in middle of oven for 35- 40 minutes. Turn out pans onto racks, brush top with melted butter. Makes 2 loaves.

Time 3h15m Yield 2 Loaves, 24 serving(s) Number Of Ingredients 7 Steps:

Place the first five ingredients in the bowl and mix. Add: 2 Cups 100% Whole Grain Wheat Flour. (to cool the water and end up with warm dough) Mix then add 2 Tbs of Dry Active Yeast. If your not sure about your yeast proof it in a little warm water first. Add: 4 Cups of 100% Whole Grain Wheat Flour. Mix until the consistency is some what even. Then continue to slowly add flour 1/2 Cup at a time until the dough quits sticking to the sides of the bowl. It should be tacky to the touch. The trick is to have enough consistency to stand up with the least amount of flour so the bread will be fluffy. It will most likely be 6 1/2 cups but in any case do not exceed 7 1/2 cups of wheat flour. You can trade one cup of wheat flour for one cup of all purpose white if you wish. Don’t over mix or the bread will be tough. When your dough is finished, leave it in the mixer, cover the bowl and let it rise for about 30-45 minutes. The dough will be larger but it doesn’t need to double. Grease two bread pans with Crisco. You can also flour the pans to reduce sticking. Mix the dough again just enough to knock it down at least close to the original size. Drop the dough on a floured surface so you can work the dough and shape it. Shape it with your hands to make a nice ball getting enough flour on it so it isn’t sticky. Divide the ball in half and do it again. Shape the loaves by turning the dough under it’s self over and over. When the dough is shaped the sides and ends will be sealed and all you will see is a nice oblong shaped loaf with smooth sides and top. Drop the loaves in your bread pans and let them rise until almost doubled. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 for 36 minutes. If you forgot to preheat 41 minutes. (gas oven). When done turn the bread out of the pan to a rack to cool. You can eat it right away (a great time for real butter) don’t wrap it until completely cooled. (Condensation will make it soggy) Put in tinfoil to store on the counter. If you put it in the refrigerator it will turn into a brick. Enjoy.

In a small bowl, stir honey into warm water, then sprinkle with yeast. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir together flour and salt in a medium bowl, then stir in yeast mixture and melted butter just until a dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large buttered bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Punch down dough. Shape into an 8-inch square, about 1 inch thick. Fold in two opposite sides of dough to meet in middle, slightly overlapping. Press seam to seal. Place dough, seam-side down, in a buttered 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle with flour. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in warm spot until dough is about 3/4 inch above top of pan, 30 to 45 minutes. Transfer pan to oven and immediately reduce heat to 350 degrees. Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until top is golden brown and bottom sounds hollow when tapped, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in pan on wire rack 20 minutes, then turn out bread onto rack and let cool completely. Bread can be stored, tightly wrapped, at room temperature up to 3 days or frozen up to 3 months.

Time 4h50m Yield 2 loaves Number Of Ingredients 5 Steps:

Proof yeast in half a cup of the water, with about a teaspoon of flour- let it sit, covered, until it becomes bubbly& active. Combine the rest of the water with the yeast/water in a large bowl, and gradually add about half of the flour. Stir the mixture about 100 times in the same direction, until it is well-mixed and strands are beginning to form. Stir in the salt and oil. Add the remaining flour half a cup at a time, stirring well, until it is too stiff to stir with a spoon. Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead for about 20 minutes, adding flour as nescessary to keep the dough from sticking to the board. The dough should be springy and nice to work with. When it has been sufficiently kneaded, cover it with a damp cloth for about 10 minutes and wash and grease the bowl lightly. After it has rested, knead the dough a few more times (it should feel really nice by now!) and place it in the bowl, covered with the damp cloth, a plastic bag, and maybe a plate. Let the dough rise until it springs back when you stick your finger in it, and it is about twice the size as it was before (this takes about 2 hours; longer or shorter depending on the room temperature- I prefer a longer (cooler) rise, because it allows the flavour to develop more… but sometimes you just don’t have time for that sort of thing). Deflate the dough by punching or kneading it a few times, and let it rise again- this time, it should take about half the amount of time as it did before. When the dough has risen twice, deflate it again and cover it with the damp cloth again for about 10 minutes (to let the gluten relax, apparently.. it makes it easier to manage if you do this), then divide it into and shape it into loaves, buns, etc. Let the shaped dough rise on a baking sheet or in a loaf-pan for about an hour maybe- it will rise a bit more in the oven. Slash the top of the bread if you want, so that it doesn’t bust open in the oven. Bake at 400º for 20 minutes, and then turn the oven down to 350º and bake for 20-30 minutes longer, until the loaf is a lovely brown and sounds hollow when you thump it on the bottom. (Buns and smaller loaves take a shorter time). Try to let the loaf cool (out side of the loaf pan, or it will get a bit soggy) before you tear into it.
