Default Re: My homemade bread sucks. I want to make GOOD bread!



This is the recipe as I have it written out on my recipe card. I check the book out from the library often. The whole section on bread making is quite informative and was very helpful. This recipe can be halved, double or tripled.

Basic Whole Wheat Bread (2 Loaves)
1-2 T yeast
2 1/4-2 3/4 C warm liquid (I use water)
1-4 T honey, molasses etc (I use honey)
2t salt
1/4 C butter or oil (I use melted butter)
6-8 C whole wheat flour

In large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm liquid with 1 t honey. When it bubbles (5-10 min) add remaining honey, salt, butter & 3C flour
Beat by hand for 200 strokes
Add 1 C more flour & beat briefly
Add remaining flour until soft dough results
Knead for 5-15 min until firm, springy and smooth.
Place in greased bowl, turn and cover. Rise in warm place for 1-2 hours or in fridge overnight (I rise mine in the oven with the light on for 1.5 hours approx)
Punch down. Shape into 2 loaves and place in greased loaf pans (I grease with butter). Grease top of loaves (I never remember to do this!)
Cover and rise until doubled
Bake 350 for 35 min.

I usually double the recipe for 4 loaves or make 3 loaves and rolls (dd1 loves to form her own little rolls herself)
