Tip # 11 Wholesome Whole-Wheat Bread

Homemade Whole Wheat Bread

Stir the following together and set aside:
¼ cup warm water
1 tablespoon yeast
1 teaspoon sugar

In a separate bowl, mix together:
2½ cups hot water
¼ cup canola oil
¼ cup sugar
¾ tablespoon salt
3 cups whole-wheat floor
Add yeast mixture and mix 5 to 10 minutes.

Next add:
½ cup potato flakes (optional)
3 to 4 more cups whole-wheat floor

Mix until the dough pulls away from the sides of bowl.
Divide the dough into 2 loaves and place in brad pans coated with cooking spray. Let the dough rise for about 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 2 0to 25 minutes, until golden brown.

I have feeling this is going to be my mom’s favorite tip! She’s been trying to get me to learn how to make bread, and I really don’t want to. But I guess I will be now…I think I will actually make the brad on Monday. So I’ll have to post how it turns out!
