Homemade Wholewheat bread
This homemade wholewheat bread recipe has a delicious mild honey taste and it's great for toasting, sliced up for sandwiches and perfect hot from the oven with a little butter.
Try adding a handfull of seeds such as sunflower, linseed or sesame seeds for a nutty taste, or for a healthier option use less bread flour, more wholewheat flour and a little less honey.
(Makes 3 homemade wholewheat bread loafs)
3 cups of warm water (710ml)
2 ( .25 ounce) active dry yeast (14g)
1/3 cup of honey (80ml )
5 cups of bread flour ( 685g )
3 tbs of butter, melted ( 45g )
1/3 cup honey (80ml)
1 tbs of salt ( 20g)
3 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour ( 420g)
2 tbs butter, melted (30 g)
Mix together the warm water, yeast, and 1/3 cup of honey, then add the 5 cups of white bread flour and mix again ( remember this makes 3 loaf's of bread so you do need to use a extra large mixing bowl). Leave to stand for 30 minutes, or until large and bubbly.
Add the (second) 1/3 cup of honey, butter(3tbs) and the salt, then give it a good stir. Add just 2 cups of the whole wheat flour and mix well (The dough will still feel wet and sticky at this point).
