THE VERY BEST WHOLE WHEAT BREAD



The Very BEST Whole Wheat Bread image

The Very BEST Whole Wheat Bread is a homemade, 100% whole wheat bread that stays soft and fresh for days!

Provided by Samantha Skaggs

Categories     Bread

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1/3 cup vital wheat gluten
4 teaspoons instant dry yeast ("quick rise" or "rapid rise")
2 1/2 cups very warm water (120°F to 130°F)
1 tablespoon salt
1/3 cup coconut oil (melted and cooled (OR vegetable oil))
1/3 cup honey
4 teaspoons lemon juice
2 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix together 3 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour, vital wheat gluten, and quick-rise yeast until well combined.
  • Add the water and mix for one minute, scraping down bowl halfway through. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Uncover the bowl and add the salt, oil, honey, and lemon juice. Beat for 1 minute.
  • Add the remaining 2 1/2 cups of flour, one cup at a time, mixing well between each cup. Knead the dough in the mixer (still using the dough hook) until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and feels smooth rather than sticky. This usually takes 10 to 15 minutes, but if your dough pulls away and loses its stickiness sooner, it could take as little as 5 minutes.
  • Grease two nonstick bread pans measuring 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" x 2 1/2" to 9" x 5" x 3" each (or grease two regular bread pans and then line them with parchment paper). Preheat the oven to lukewarm by setting it to 350°F and then turning it back off after exactly 1 minute.
  • Turn the dough onto a greased surface. Evenly divide it into two loaves. Form and place the dough into the prepared bread pans, gently pressing it into the corners.
  • Place the pans in the warm oven and allow them to rise for 20 to 40 minutes, until the dough is nicely domed above the tops of the pans. Without removing the pans from the oven, turn on the oven to 350°F and set the timer for 30 minutes. The bread is done when the tops are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 190°F to 200°F on an instant-read thermometer. Once the loaves are baked, immediately remove the hot bread from the pans to cool on a rack.

THE BEST, FASTEST WHOLE WHEAT BREAD- THAT THE KIDS WILL LOVE TOO



The Best, Fastest Whole Wheat Bread- That the Kids Will Love Too image

There are many perks working at the local extension office and one of them for sure is the food. One of my favorite recipes is for this delicious whole wheat bread. It is soft and light (just like white bread) and is fast to make compared to some yeast breads due to the instant yeast. Great recipe to get those kids to love whole wheat bread. I had posted a previous version of this recipe (#326380) but we have since added some additional ingredients to make it even better- an egg, some powdered milk and lecithin. Lecithin is easily found in any health food store- really helps with that soft texture I am talking about.

An easy kid-friendly wheat sandwich bread, especially easy if you have a mixer with a dough hook. My picky kid even eats the crust!

Provided by Susan K.

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Whole Grain Bread Recipes     Wheat Bread

Time 2h45m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ½ cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 (.25 ounce) envelopes active dry yeast
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 cups whole wheat flour
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons salt
⅓ cup vegetable oil
½ cup milk, room temperature

Steps:

  • Measure the water into a large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer and stir in 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and set aside until foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Add 1 cup of the all-purpose flour and 3 cups of whole wheat flour to the bowl along with the brown sugar, salt, vegetable oil and milk. Mix on low speed to blend ingredients. Continue to mix on medium speed, adding the rest of the flour 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough clings to the hook and cleans the sides of the bowl. You may not need to add all of the flour. Mix on medium speed for about 5 minutes. Oil the bowl and turn the dough to coat. Cover loosely and set aside to rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch down the dough and place on a floured surface. Divide into two equal portions and use a rolling pin to roll each one into a rectangle that is about 16x8 inches. Be sure to press out all of the air bubbles. Roll the rectangles into loaves and pinch the seam together.
  • Place loaves seam side down into greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cut a few slits across the top of each loaf using a sharp serrated knife. Set aside to rise until your finger leaves a dimple when you press into a loaf, 30 to 45 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Bake the loaves for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until loaves are deep brown. Remove from pans to cool on a wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use a bread machine: A bread machine makes the whole process of making whole wheat bread much easier. Simply add the ingredients to the machine and it will do the rest of the work for you.
  • Use whole wheat flour: Whole wheat flour is a healthier option than white flour. It is a good source of fiber, which can help to keep you feeling full and satisfied. It is also a good source of nutrients, such as vitamins B and E, iron, and magnesium.
  • Add some sweetness: If you like a slightly sweet bread, you can add a tablespoon or two of honey or sugar to the dough. This will help to balance out the nutty flavor of the whole wheat flour.
  • Let the dough rise properly: It is important to let the dough rise properly before baking it. This will help the bread to be light and fluffy. Allow the dough to rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature: Baking the bread at a high temperature will help to create a crispy crust. Bake the bread at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

Conclusion:

Whole wheat bread is a delicious and healthy option for your family. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make a loaf of whole wheat bread that your family will love.
