Ingredients
- 3 cups Whole wheat flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1.25 cups Warm water (about 110°F)
- 0 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in 1/4 cup of warm water from the measured amount and add 1 tablespoon of honey. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is activated.
Step 2
Attach the dough blade to your food processor. Add the whole wheat flour and salt to the food processor bowl.
Step 3
Turn on the food processor and, while it's running, gradually pour the yeast mixture and the remaining 1 cup of warm water into the flour mixture through the feed tube.
Step 4
Drizzle in the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey as the dough comes together. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, but avoid adding too much.
Step 5
Process the dough for about 60-90 seconds or until it forms a smooth ball that clears the sides of the bowl.
Step 6
Lightly coat a large bowl with non-stick cooking spray. Transfer the dough to the bowl, turning it to coat the surface with the spray. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free spot for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Step 7
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 8
Punch down the risen dough to release excess air. Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in the prepared loaf pan. Cover it with the kitchen towel and let it rise again for 20-30 minutes, or until it fills the pan and has nearly doubled in size.
Step 9
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Step 10
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
