QUICK RISE WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
I attended a whole wheat bread making class at our extension office and this was the recipe that was prepared. I made it the very next day, turned out light, soft and wonderful! Just a note: this recipe uses "instant" yeast. Instant yeast is a quick rising yeast and does not need two risings to make excellent bread. I use SAF brand.

Steps:
- Add ingredients in the order listed to bread mixing bowl.
- Using a dough hook, mix well and add more flour if needed so that the dough cleans the sides of the bowl (dough should be slightly tacky.
- Knead for 10 minutes.
- Shape into 2 to 3 loaves depending on the size of your pans. Add dough to sprayed pans.
- Cover with tented plastic or cloth and let rise for about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 400 for the last half hour of rising. It is ready to go in the oven when the dough is doubled in bulk.
- Turn oven down to 350 and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Take out of pans and let cool on wire rack.
- Brush tops with melted butter to keep crusts soft.
- additional ingredients may be added:.
- Eggs:.
- decrease water by 1/4 cup and add two beaten eggs. Eggs add flavor, liquid, color, structure, nutrients and tenderness to breads.
- Cracked wheat:.
- Add 1/2 cup uncooked cracked wheat for each 4 cups of flour. If using uncooked cracked wheat the bread will be somewhat crunchy. cooking the cracked wheat first will add a variety of texture without the crunch feel. Many people like to put oatlems or other cooked cereals into their bread. As a guidelin, use 1/2 cup or less per 4 cups of flour.
- Potatoes:.
- They add a sweet, rich flavor to breads. Add 1/2 cup to 4 cups flour and reduce water by 1/4 cup.
