Time 3h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ¾ cups warm water
2 tablespoons honey
¾ teaspoon active dry yeast
3 ½ cups whole wheat flour, or more as needed, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Mix the warm water, honey, and yeast in a stand-mixer bowl until mixture becomes foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Add half the whole wheat flour, olive oil, and salt to the mixture. Mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until incorporated. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Mix with a dough hook attachment on low speed, slowly adding the remaining whole wheat flour, increasing the speed to high. Mix on high until the batter is combined and not sticking to the sides of the bowl, about 7 minutes. Cover the bowl with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Flour a surface to work the dough.
  • Place the dough onto the floured work surface and shape into a loaf. Use more flour if necessary. Place into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Let shaped dough sit in a warm place until it has risen over the top of the pan, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 to 20 minutes before removing from the pan and transferring to a wire rack. Let cool an additional hour before slicing; otherwise it will feel doughy.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups cranberries
1/2 cup light-colored mild honey
2 large navel oranges (organic so peel has no pesticides)
1 egg
4 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
cooking spray or extra butter, for greasing pan

  • Meanwhile, peel the zest from both oranges and mince it finely, then set aside. Peel the white pith from both oranges and discard. Add the oranges to the food processor and process for three or four pulses, then transfer to the cranberry-honey mixture.
  • Add the egg to the food processor and process until it is well beaten, then add the cooled butter and process until combined.
  • Scrape the egg mixture into the cranberry mixture.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour through walnuts, plus the prepared orange zest). Add the wet (cranberry) mixture to the dry ingredients and combine. Spoon and scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool, in the pan, on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then turn out onto the rack and let the loaf cool completely. Wrap in aluminum foil and eat the following day for best flavor.
