Molasses Wheat Artisan Bread image

Beutiful round rustic loaves of amazing wheat bread with the destinct note of molasses. MMM The recipe started in my family somewhere before my grandmother. I "up-dated some and sometimes substitute molasses for honey which is great! Also the origional recipe called for hulled sunflour seeds baked in and on top. So easy to make your own beautiful homemade bread....this recipe makes the most intimidated cook look like a rock star!
