1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
1/3 cup boiling water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Add whole flour and 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour. Beat on medium speed for 2-3 minutes. Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour to make a stiff dough., Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Punch the dough down; cover and let rest for 8 minutes. Shape into a loaf. Place in a greased 9x5-in. loaf pan.
