Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 pkg dry active yeast
1 1/4 cup very warm water (divided)
1/4 cup + 1 tsp honey
1 tbsp butter (melted)
1 tsp salt
3-3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

Steps:

Combine the yeast, 1/4 C of warm water, and 1/2 tsp of the honey to a small bowl. Let the yeast proof. This means to wait until it is bubbly, to show you that the yeast is alive and kicking!
While the yeast is proofing, add the remaining bread ingredients (remaining water, remaining honey, butter, salt and flour) to the bowl of a stand mixer.
Once the yeast has proofed, pour it into the stand mixer and begin mixing slowly with the dough attachment. Once all of the flour is combined, knead for 5 minutes. The dough will be sticky, but you should be able to pull off some dough and roll it into a little ball. If it is too sticky for that, add a little extra flour.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until double in size.
Shape dough into a loaf by rolling the dough and tucking in the ends and place in a shortening coated bread pan. Cover with plastic wrap and rise for an additonal 30 minutes.
Turn on the oven to 375°.
Bake at 375° for 25 - 30 mintues. Brush the top with butter during the last 5 minutes of baking if deesired.
Cool for 15 mintues before slicing.

GREAT HARVEST HONEY WHOLE WHEAT BREAD COPYCAT

Great Harvest Honey Whole Wheat Bread Copycat image

Provided by Six Sisters Stuff

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

4 cups very warm water (see note below)
3 Tablespoons fast active-dry yeast
3/4 cup honey
1 Tablespoon salt
10-11 cups whole wheat flour (freshly ground if possible)

Steps:

In a large bowl, add water, yeast, honey and salt. Let it rest for 5 minutes (or until the yeast foams).
Add in flour 1 cup at a time, kneading it between each cup of flour added if you are making it by hand. If you are making it with a mixer (like a Bosch or Kitchen Aid), use a paddle attachment and just let it mix while you add the flour.
Knead bread for about 5 minutes. If the dough is sticky, add only enough flour so that the dough barely pulls away from the bowl. Every time I make bread, the amount of flour I use varies - humidity and elevation will make a big difference too. I usually use between 10-11 cups.
Preheat oven to 170 degrees; turn the oven off, and let dough rise inside the oven for 15 minutes.
Carefully remove bowl from oven. Spray the back of your hand with cooking spray and punch down the dough. Form into a log and cut in half, forming two larger-sized loaves. Put into 2 greased loaf pans.
Again, preheat oven (if it?s not warm anymore) to 170 degrees and let the dough in the pans rise in the oven for 20-30 minutes, or until the dough doubles in size.
Remove dough from oven and set oven temperature to 350 degrees. Once oven is pre-heated, place the loaves back in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove from pans immediately and let cool completely on a cooling rack.

Tips:

If you don't have a bread machine, you can knead the dough by hand. Just mix the ingredients together in a large bowl and knead for about 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
If the dough is too sticky to handle, add a little more flour. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water.
Let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Let the dough rise again for about 30 minutes, or until it has risen to the top of the pan.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bake the bread for about 40-45 minutes, or until it is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
