MILK AND HONEY WHOLE WHEAT BREAD

Makes a wonderful, sweet (ish) soft whole wheat bread that is great toasted with butter and honey in the mornings. Gets stale pretty quickly so plan on using it quickly or freeze it in slices. Topped with seeds makes wonderful gifts. Notes: add additional 1 T honey or molasses for sweeter bread. Can substitute up to 1 cup of other whole grains/wheat flours including oatmeal, cornmeal, rye for whole wheat flour. Oil optional. you can save a small amount of the egg white to brush on the bread for a shiny crust. Can top with sesame/sunflower/poppy seeds just before removing from oven.

Time 1h50m

Yield 2 loaves, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup white flour
2 tablespoons sugar (I usually use brown)
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup milk
3/4 cup warm water
1 egg
1 tablespoon oil (optional)
cornmeal, to sprinkle on baking stone

Steps:

  • In a separate large bowl mix together white and whole wheat flours.
  • Slowly pour liquid into 1 C of flour. Add remaining flour 1/2 C at a time, stirring well after each addition. When dough has pulled together turn onto a floured surface. Knead until bread is silky, about 10 minutes if by hand.
  • Put into oiled bowl, cover with a damp towel and put in a warm draft-free place. Let rise for approx 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 500 with baking stone on bottom shelf and a pan on top shelf.
  • Punch down and form into loaves. Slash tops with sharp knife or put into loaf pans. Let rise again until doubled in size.
  • For a shiny crust, brush loaves with beaten egg.
  • Slide into oven and pour 1/2 cup warm water into top shelf's pan to create steam.
  • Bake at 500 for 5 minutes then turn oven down to 400. Bake until golden brown/loaves sound hollow, approximately 10-15 minutes if in small loaves, 25+ minutes if in loaf pans.

Provided by Kristin Zaharias

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Whole Grain Bread Recipes     Wheat Bread

Time 2h30m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (.25 ounce) package rapid rise yeast
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
¼ cup water
¼ cup melted shortening
¼ cup honey
2 teaspoons salt
2 cups whole wheat flour
3 cups bread flour
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast and sugar in 1/2 cup warm water.
  • Combine milk, 1/4 cup water, shortening, honey, salt and wheat flour in food processor or bowl. Mix in yeast mixture, and let rest 15 minutes. Add bread flour, and process until dough forms a ball. Knead dough by processing an additional 80 seconds in food processor, or mix and knead by hand 10 minutes. Place the dough in a buttered bowl, and turn to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rise for 45 minutes, or until almost doubled.
  • Punch down, and divide dough in half. Roll out each half, and pound out the bubbles. Form into loaves, and place in buttered 9x5 inch bread pans. Butter the tops of the dough, and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm area until doubled; second rise should take about 30 minutes.
  • Place a small pan of water on the bottom shelf of the oven. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until tops are dark golden brown. Butter crusts while warm. Slice when cool.

Tips:

  • Using a high-quality whole wheat flour will significantly impact the flavor and texture of your bread.
  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal yeast activity and a consistent rise.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of honey in the recipe. If you prefer a sweeter bread, add more honey.
  • The dough should be slightly tacky but not sticky. If it's too sticky, add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help develop the gluten and give the bread a chewy texture.
  • Be patient during the rising process. The dough needs time to double in size, so don't rush it.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help create a crispy crust and evenly cooked interior.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help prevent the bread from tearing.

Conclusion:

Milk and honey whole wheat bread is a delicious and nutritious bread perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a homemade bread recipe, try this one. You won't be disappointed!
