Homemade Wheat Bread Recipe.

Ingredients:

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
2-1/4 cups warm water (110 degrees to 115 degrees )
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup honey
3 TBSPs sugar
1 TBSP salt
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk powder
4-1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2-3/4 to 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Recipe Instructions:

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water.
Add butter, honey, sugar, salt, milk powder and 3 cups whole wheat flour; beat on medium speed until smooth.
Stir in remaining whole wheat flour and enough all-purpose flour to form a soft dough.

Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Punch down dough.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough into 4 portions.
Roll each into a 15"
rope.
For each loaf, twist 2 ropes together; pinch ends to seal.
Place in greased 9x5"
loaf pans.
Cover with kitchen towels; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Bake until golden brown, 25-30 minutes.
Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
