TABITHA'S HOMEMADE WHEAT BREAD
This whole wheat bread has a really good taste depending on your flour. I think King Arthur® is the best! This bread has cocoa and coffee in it. It can be made by hand, or use your bread machine's dough setting to knead and rise, then bake it in the oven. If you are not feeling bold you can leave out the cocoa and coffee and add some nuts. Have fun! Form into a freehand loaf or place into a greased loaf pan.

Steps:
- Combine yeast, honey, butter, salt, warm water, instant coffee, and cocoa powder in a mixing bowl. Gradually beat in 3 cups flour. Mix with your hands until ingredients form into a ball; transfer it to a floured work surface. Knead in additional 1/2 cup of flour if the dough is too sticky to work with. Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 15 minutes.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl and cover it with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Flatten the dough into a rectangle, pressing down with your hands to pop any air bubbles. Fold the dough into thirds, rolling it slightly under your palms to form a loaf, and pinch the seam to seal. Shape the dough into a freeform loaf and place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Cover the dough with a floured kitchen towel and allow it to rise again until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Remove the towel. Use a serrated knife to score the loaf, cutting three slashes on the top or as desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown and the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove the bread from the loaf pan and cool on a wire rack.

Tips:
- Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results.
- Make sure your yeast is active before using it. To test, mix 1 teaspoon of yeast with 1 teaspoon of sugar in 1/4 cup of warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes. If the mixture bubbles and expands, your yeast is active and ready to use.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworked dough will be tough and chewy. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place. The ideal temperature for rising dough is between 75-85 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help the bread to rise evenly and prevent it from collapsing.
