Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, oats, maple or brown sugar, honey, butter, salt, and cinnamon. Let cool to lukewarm, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add the yeast and flours, stirring to form a rough dough. Knead (about 10 minutes by hand, 5 to 7 minutes by machine) until the dough is smooth and satiny.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover the bowl with lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour. Since the dough is warm to begin with (from the boiling water), it should become quite puffy.
- Divide the dough in half, and shape each half into a loaf. Place the loaves in two greased 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" bread pans.
- Cover the pans with lightly greased plastic wrap and allow the loaves to rise until they've crowned about 1" over the rim of the pan, about 60 to 90 minutes.
- Bake the loaves in a preheated 350°F oven for 35 to 40 minutes, tenting them lightly with aluminum foil after 25 minutes, to prevent over-browning. Remove them from the oven when they're golden brown, and the interior registers 190°F on a digital thermometer.
- Turn the loaves out onto a rack to cool. Store at room temperature, well-wrapped, for several days; freeze for longer storage.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the bread will taste. This is especially true for the honey and wheat flour.
- Make sure the yeast is active before using it. If the yeast is not active, the bread will not rise properly.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help to develop the gluten in the flour, which will give the bread a chewy texture.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will allow the yeast to work its magic and produce carbon dioxide gas, which will cause the bread to rise.
- Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help to create a crispy crust.
Conclusion:
Vermont Honey Wheat Bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be used for sandwiches, toast, or simply enjoyed on its own. It is a great way to use up leftover honey and wheat flour, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a new bread recipe to try, give this one a try.
