Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp dry instant yeast (quick rising works, too)
- 2 cups warm water
- 2 Tbsp honey OR any sweetener
- 2 Tbsp olive oil OR applesauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 cup whole wheat flour (White wheat works best, but red wheat works too.)
Instructions
-
MIX yeast, water, sweetener, oil, and salt into bowl.
-
ADD two cups flour and mix gently.
-
ADD one – two cups flour OR as needed to make a sticky dough consistency. (Use less, if not using oil or applesauce.)
-
SET aside for 15 minutes to allow flour to absorb and for the dough to start rising.
-
DIVIDE into two loaves with well-floured hands.
-
PUT both balls of dough onto an oiled cookie sheet, one on each side.
-
RISE until double, while cookie sheet is sitting on the stove.
-
PREHEAT oven to 425F while bread is rising. The heat will speed up the process and then your oven will be hot when the bread is ready.
-
BAKE at 400F for 10 minutes.
-
REDUCE heat to 375F and BAKE for 15-20 more minutes, or until golden.
-
REMOVE from oven and cool on a rack.
