Whole Wheat Bread

Состав / Ингредиенты:

• Warm water 2 3/4 Cups
• Vegetable oil 4 Tbsp
• Sugar (can be replaced with a natural sweetener like agave nectar, for example) 2 1/2 Tbsp
• Honey 2 Tbsp
• Salt 1 Tbsp
• Whole wheat flour 7 Cups
• Active dry yeast 2 Tbsp

	1. In a large bowl, pour in the water, add the vegetable oil, sugar, salt, and honey. Mix well. Add two cups of flour, stir again, and then add the yeast. Gradually add in the remaining four cups of flour and thoroughly mix using a mixer or food processor until you have a homogeneous dough.
	2. You still have one cup of flour left. If the dough does not stick to the sides of the bowl, do not add more flour. If it sticks, add it gradually while continuing to mix. Do not exceed seven cups. Cover the prepared dough with a towel and let it sit for 40 minutes. Then, punch down the dough and divide it into two equal parts.
	3. On a floured surface, punch down the dough pieces and shape them into balls. Place the dough into greased pans, filling them halfway. The pans can also be dusted with flour. Let the dough sit in the pans for 40 minutes, during which it will rise nearly double in size.
	4. Bake the bread in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 36 minutes. Place two baking sheets in the oven at the same time. Once done, remove the bread from the pans and let it cool on a wire rack. When the bread cools slightly, wrap it in foil and leave it like that until completely cool.
	5. Whole wheat bread should not be stored in the refrigerator. It is best consumed within a week. Enjoy your meal!
