Ingredients
- 2 cups Warm water (110°F/45°C)
- 1 tablespoon Active dry yeast
- 0.333 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 3.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and honey. Stir until the honey is dissolved.
Step 2
Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the honey-water mixture and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
Step 3
Add vegetable oil and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
Step 4
Gradually add whole wheat flour, one cup at a time, mixing after each addition. When the mixture becomes a thick dough, begin adding the all-purpose flour.
Step 5
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, adding flour as necessary to prevent sticking. The dough should be smooth and elastic.
Step 6
Place the kneaded dough into a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to coat. Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Step 7
Punch the dough down to release any air pockets. Divide it into two equal portions.
Step 8
Shape each portion into a loaf and place them into two greased 9x5-inch loaf pans.
Step 9
Cover the pans with a damp towel and let the dough rise again for 30-40 minutes, or until they've doubled in size.
Step 10
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the loaves for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Step 11
Remove the loaves from the pans and let them cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
