100% Whole Wheat Bread…the BEST!
I make this for my kids’ sandwiches…a terrific snack or sandwich bread.

*Have not tried this at high altitude!

2 1/2 c. hot tap water
1/4 c. olive oil
1/3 c. honey
3 c. fresh ground whole wheat flour
1/2 T. salt
1/4 c. potato flakes
1 T. gluten flour
1 T. SAF instant yeast
2-3 more cups whole wheat flour

With mixer running combine water, oil, honey. Slowly add 3 c. flour, salt, potato flakes and gluten. Add yeast and mix for one minute then let sit and sponge. Resume mixing and add the rest of the flour a little at a time, being careful not to add too much. Dough will be sticky and not quite clear the sides of bowl. Let knead on low speed 5-6 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes. Form loaves, let rise 10 min. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Makes 2 loaves.

**use pre-ground wheat flour, or the flour you grind yourself at the store in the 5lb bags are enough for an entire batch with a little left over. Remember to store freshly ground flour in the fridge or freezer.
