KING ARTHUR'S 100% WHOLE WHEAT SANDWICH BREAD

This recipe is from King Arthur Flour. This makes a great bread! This is the recipe from their website, I actually did not have the bread improver it calls for, but if you add a 1/4 vital wheat gluten I think it does the same thing, because it came out great when I made it (if you add the wheat gluten, then subtract 1/4 cup whole wheat flour) I also used their grain mix instead of the sunflower seeds and walnuts, but I'm sure whatever you like will taste great. Enjoy!

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 3h

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 7

13 ounces lukewarm water (reduce this bread by 2 T if you are making in the summer, when there is more humidity in the air)
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup Baker's Special Dry Milk or 1/2 cup nonfat dry milk powder
3 1/2 cups king arthur white whole wheat flour (can sub 1 c King Arthur High-maize Natural Fiber) or 3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (can sub 1 c King Arthur High-maize Natural Fiber)
2 teaspoons instant yeast

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients and mix and knead, by hand, mixer or bread machine until you've made a smooth, fairly stiff (but not dry) dough. Place in a lightly greased bowl, covered and allow to rise for 60 to 90 minutes, until its expanded a bit. It won't have doubled in size, but should feel puffy when you squeeze it.
  • Lightly grease a 9x5 loaf pan. Gently shape the dough into a smooth log, there's no need to punch it down, just stretch and round it to fit in the pan. Place it in the pan, smooth side up, cover the pan and allow it to rise for about 30-45 minutes, till it crowns over the rim by an inch or so. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Bake the bread for 35 to 40 minutes, until the center registers 190F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove it from the oven, and turn out of the pan onto a rack. Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Freshly milled whole wheat flour provides the best flavor and texture for your bread. If you can't find freshly milled flour, you can use store-bought whole wheat flour, but be sure to check the expiration date to ensure its freshness.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: Baking is a science, and precise measurements are essential for success. Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients for the most accurate results.
  • Proof your yeast: Proofing your yeast ensures that it is active and ready to use. To proof your yeast, dissolve it in warm water with a little sugar and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. The yeast should foam and bubble, indicating that it is active.
  • Knead your dough properly: Kneading your dough develops the gluten in the flour, which gives bread its structure and texture. Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let your dough rise in a warm place: The ideal temperature for rising dough is between 75-85 degrees Fahrenheit. You can place your dough in a warm oven with the light on, or in a warm corner of your kitchen.
  • Bake your bread at a high temperature: Baking your bread at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) creates a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.

King Arthur's 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread is a delicious and nutritious bread that is perfect for sandwiches, toast, or even just eating on its own. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this bread is a great choice for both beginner and experienced bakers.
