WHOLE WHEAT SANDWICH BREAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk the water, honey, and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes, until the yeast has bloomed.
- NOTE: It may be tempting to use all whole wheat flour in this recipe, but, in our testing, that method resulted in dense, tough, squat breads that barely rose when we tried to proof them. Using some all-purpose flour was necessary to give us the rise and soft, pillowy texture we wanted in a good sandwich bread.
- Pour in the wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oil, and salt, and mix until the dough comes together in a ball that does not stick to your fingers.
- NOTE: You can also do the first 2 steps in a standing mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment, mixing on low speed until the dough no longer sticks to the sides.
- On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough a few times until it really starts to form a tight ball.
- Form the dough into a ball shape and transfer to a greased bowl, turning the dough to coat it in grease. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a wet towel and store in a warm place for 1 hour.
- Allow the dough to proof until it has doubled in size. Save the plastic wrap or towel as you'll be using it again.
- Transfer the proofed dough to a lightly floured surface and press the dough - don't stretch - into a 7x7-inch (18x18 cm) square.
- Fold the top 3rd of the square down, and the bottom 3rd up to form an even rectangle. Pinch the top fold to seal the dough.
- Roll the dough over so that the seal faces upward and fold both ends up toward the center, so that the dough has formed an even log shape about the size of your loaf pan.
- Transfer the dough to a greased loaf pan and cover with with the same plastic wrap or towel used before.
- Let the dough rise for 1 hour, until it has poofed over the edge of the loaf pan about 1½ inches (4 cm).
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Remove the plastic wrap or towel and transfer to the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, until the dough has browned slightly and formed a light brown crust.
- Immediately remove the loaf from the pan and set aside to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.
- Store in an airtight container or bag. The bread can be stored in freezer up to 6 months.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix warm water, yeast, and 1/3 cup honey. Add 5 cups white bread flour, and stir to combine. Let set for 30 minutes, or until big and bubbly.
- Mix in 3 tablespoons melted butter, 1/3 cup honey, and salt. Stir in 2 cups whole wheat flour. Flour a flat surface and knead with whole wheat flour until not real sticky - just pulling away from the counter, but still sticky to touch. This may take an additional 2 to 4 cups of whole wheat flour. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to coat the surface of the dough. Cover with a dishtowel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled.
- Punch down, and divide into 3 loaves. Place in greased 9 x 5 inch loaf pans, and allow to rise until dough has topped the pans by one inch.
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 to 30 minutes; do not overbake. Lightly brush the tops of loaves with 2 tablespoons melted butter or margarine when done to prevent crust from getting hard. Cool completely.

Tips:
- Activate the yeast properly: Ensure the water is between 105-115°F (40-46°C) to activate the yeast effectively. If the water is too hot, it will kill the yeast, and if it's too cold, the yeast won't activate properly.
- Gradually add the flour: Slowly incorporate the flour into the wet ingredients, starting with 3 cups and gradually adding more until the dough comes together and forms a smooth, slightly sticky ball. This prevents the dough from becoming too dry or tough.
- Knead the dough properly: Knead the dough for at least 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth, elastic, and bounces back when you poke it. Proper kneading develops the gluten in the flour, giving the bread its structure and texture.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: Choose a warm spot in your kitchen, ideally between 75-85°F (24-29°C), for the dough to rise. Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.
- Shape the dough according to your preference: You can shape the dough into a traditional loaf, dinner rolls, or any other desired shape. Make sure to tuck the edges of the dough under to create a smooth, round shape.
- Bake the bread until golden brown: Bake the bread in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 190°F (88°C).
