Ingredients:
2 (1/4-ounce) envelopes active dry yeast |
1/2 cup warm water (100° to 110°) |
2 teaspoons sugar |
3 cups whole wheat flour |
1 1/2 cups milk |
1/2 cup honey |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened |
2 1/2 to 3 cups bread flour |
Directions:
1. Combine yeast, 1/2 cup warm water, and sugar in a 2-cup glass measuring cup; let stand 5 minutes. 2. Beat yeast mixture, 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, and next 4 ingredients at medium speed with an electric mixer until blended. Stir in remaining 1 1/2 cups wheat flour. Add bread flour, 1 cup at a time, beating after each addition. Let stand 15 minutes. 3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 5 to 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in a well-greased bowl, turning to grease top. 4. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down, and divide into 2 equal portions. Shape each portion into a loaf; place loaves into 2 greased 9- x 5-inch loafpans. 5. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, 30 to 45 minutes or until doubled in bulk. 6. Bake at 375° for 20 minutes; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and bake 15 more minutes or until loaves sound hollow when tapped. Remove from pans, and cool on wire racks. |
