Time 1h30m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/4 teaspoons yeast
1 1/4 cups warm water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups white flour (more if dough is sticky)

Steps:

Stir together yeast, water, oil, and honey in a bowl to dissolve the yeast.
Next add salt and whole wheat flour.
Mix well, then add white flour.
Knead the dough until it's smooth and elastic (you can never'over-knead' the dough, sometimes I even punch the dough; it helps relieve stress!).
Cover with a towel and let raise 20 minutes.
Punch down and shape into a round loaf, place on greased cookie sheet, cover, and let raise until double (about 1 hour).
Bake 35 minutes at 350 degrees.
Enjoy!
