WHITE WHOLE WHEAT BREAD (BREAD MACHINE)

Steps:

• 1. In this recipe from the King Arthur Flour Co., white whole wheat flour makes an incredibly light-textured whole grain bread that almost has you believing it is a white flour bread. If you use olive oil, be sure to use a light, flavorless one. Since this has the sweet addition of maple syrup, it is perfect for toasting.
• 2. Place all the ingredients in the pan according to the order in the manufacturer's instructions. Set crust on dark and program for the Basic or Whole Wheat cycle: press Start. (This recipe MAY be used with the Delay Timer.)
• 3. When the baking cycle ends, immediately remove the bread from the pan and place it on a rack. Let cool to room temperature before slicing.

100% WHOLE WHEAT BREAD (NON-DENSE/HEAVY, WHITE BREAD TEXTURE)

Steps:

• The Sponge: In your bread mixing bowl put the yeast, 3/4 cup water, and the cup of whole wheat flour, mix until combined then cover with plastic wrap and a towel and let it sit for 45 minutes to an hour in a warm place. It should be bubbly.
• The Dough: Add the 2 cups water, 2 cups whole wheat flour, dry milk, wheat gluten, salt, sugar and oil. Mix until combined.
• Here's where you learn how to make bread. Start to add your remaining flour. I add one cup at a time but you can do it by the half a cup. 2 cups might be enough but it could go up to 4 cups. Fully incorporate the flour you add before adding more.
• Whole wheat bread will still be a little sticky and a little stiff, carefully judge when you think you have enough. Once you make bread enough you'll know when it's enough flour. You can always add more flour when you're kneading.
• Kneading: By hand, 20 to 30 minutes. In a mixer, 10 minutes. I suggest the bread mixer. The first time I made this I did it by hand. Because whole wheat is heavier I could only last about 2 minutes. I baked it but this was not a light textured bread. The second time I did it for 10 in my mixer... wow what a difference.
• Rising: Once your dough is kneaded your going to coat it all over in a little oil and stick it in a bowl that will let it rise at least one and a half times it's size. Now you're going to cover it with plastic wrap and a towel, put it in a warm place and let it rise for 45 minutes to an hour. It should have risen over double it's size.
• During this rising time you want to spray or butter two bread pans. I use Pyrex 9"x5".
• Shaping, Last Rise, and Baking: When your dough is ready dump it out and push the bubbles out of it. Divide it as equal as you can. Flatten each piece out to a rectangle about the size of the pan then roll it up tight and pinch the seams together tucking the ends inches Turn over and put in the pan seam side down.
• Put the loaves in a warm place and cover with a towel, let them rise from 30 minutes to an hour. You want your loaves to be at least 2 inches over the top of the pan, nice and high, they won't rise anymore in the oven. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Bake for 15 minutes then lower the heat to 350 and cook for another 20 minutes. They will be a deep brown.
• Take them out and remove them from their pans and cool on a cooling rack. Enjoy!

BREAD MACHINE PIZZA DOUGH WHITE WHOLE WHEAT

Steps:

• Sprinkle garlic powder and italian herbs over top of flour in bread machine.
• Add remaining white whole wheat flour.
• Run bread machine on dough setting.
• When dough is finished, removed to a floured board. Cut into six pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Coat each ball with olive oil and slip into a sandwich bag.
• Let dough rest in the refrigerator overnight or at least 12 hours.
• When you are ready to make pizza, remove desired amount of dough from refrigerator and let sit for one hour. Keep covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying out.
• Stretch dough out very thin before topping as you wish.

WHITE WHOLE WHEAT BREAD (FOOD PROCESSOR)

Steps:

• Place the flour, salt, wheat gluten and yeast in a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Using an instant-read thermometer, adjust the water temperature so that the combined temperatures of the water and the flour give a base temperature of 130 degrees F using a Cuisinart or KitchenAid or 150 degrees F if using a Braun. With the machine running, add the oil and the water through the feed tube. Process for 20 seconds, adding the remaining water if the dough seems crumbly and dry and does not come together into a ball during this time. Continue mixing the dough another 25 seconds for a total of 45 seconds.
• Stop the machine and take the temperature of the dough with an instant-read thermometer, which should read between 75 deg. F and 80 deg. F. If the temperature is lower than 75 deg. F, process the dough for an additional 5 seconds, up to twice more, until it reaches the desired temperature. If the temperature is higher than 80 deg. F, remove the thermometer, scrape the dough from the food processor into an ungreased bowl, and refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes. Check the temperature of the dough after 5 minutes; the dough should be 80 deg. F or cooler by that time.
• Remove the dough from the processor and place it in a large ungreased bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1.5 to 2 hours at room temperature, about 70 deg. F to 72 deg. F. It will increase in volume somewhat, but don't be concerned by how much.
• Turn onto a lightly floured work surface, and shape into a ball. Place the formed loaf on a floured baking sheet, cover the loaf, and let it proof at room temperature for about 1.5 to 2 hours, until it visibly doubles in bulk. The dough will be ready to bake when an instant-read thermometer shows it has reached an internal temperature of 60 deg. F to 62 deg. F.
• One hour before bakng, place a small pan for water on the floor of the oven, put the oven rack on the second shelf from the bottom of the oven, and place the baking stone on the rack. Preheat the oven to 475 deg. F. Transfer the bread onto a peel or onto the back of a baking sheet heavily coated with cornmeal.
• Carefully pour 1 cup of hot water onto the pan on the floor of the oven. Slide the loaf from the peel or baking sheet heavily coated with cornmeal.
• Bake the loaf for 2 minutes. Create steam by adding another cup of water to the pan on the floor of the oven. Continue baking for 18 minutes, until the crust is a dark brown. Or, the bread will be finished when it reaches an internal temperature of 205 deg. F to 210 deg. F on an instant-read thermometer. Cool the bread on a wire rack before cutting.

WHITE WHOLE WHEAT CINNAMON ROLL BREAD

Steps:

• Activate yeast in 1/4 cup lukewarm water from the recipe for 5 minutes. Then add 3/4 cup water, making 1 cup.
• In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients and stir until the dough starts to leave the sides of the bowl. This dough should be soft, yet still firm enough to knead. Adjust its consistency with additional water or flour if necessary. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased surface, oil your hands, and knead it for 6 to 8 minutes or until it begins to become smooth and supple. You may also knead this dough in an electric mixer or food processor, or in a bread machine programmed for "dough" or "manual".
• Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl or large measuring cup, cover it, and allow the dough to rise until puffy though not necessarily doubled in bulk, about 1 to 2 hours, depending on the warmth of your kitchen.
• Roll out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle 1/2 inch thick.
• Moisten the dough with 1 tablespoon milk and rub all over the dough with your hands. Mix together cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle the mixture evenly on top of the moistened dough. Then sprinkle on raisins and pecans, pat them down, and roll up tightly.
• Place the log in a lightly greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 loaf pan, cover the pan loosely with lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow the bread to rise for about 1 to 2 hours, or until the center has crowned about 1" above the rim of the pan. When the bread is almost done rising, preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Bake the bread 40 minutes for soft center or 45 minutes for fully cooked center, tenting it lightly with aluminum foil after 20 minutes to prevent over-browning.
• Remove the bread from the oven and turn it out of the pan onto a rack to cool. If desired, rub the crust with a stick of butter; this will yield a soft, flavorful crust. Cool completely before slicing. Store the bread in a plastic bag at room temperature.

WHITE WHOLE WHEAT BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan. 2. Mash the bananas with a potato masher or fork; or purée them in a blender or food processor. 3. In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until smooth. Add the vanilla, baking soda, salt, and bananas, beating until well combined. Beat in the honey and eggs. 4. Add the flour, then the walnuts, stirring until smooth. 5. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top. Let it rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. 6. Bake the bread for 50 minutes, then gently lay a piece of aluminum foil across the top, to prevent over-browning. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, then remove the bread from the oven; a long toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center should come out clean. 7. Allow the loaf to cool for 10 minutes; then remove it from the pan, and set it on a rack to cool completely. Store at room temperature, well wrapped in plastic, for several days; freeze for longer storage. BAKING TIPS: Want to dress up the bread's crust - and add flavor, too? Mix 2 tablespoons granulated sugar + 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; sprinkle evenly over the top of the bread before baking. For banana-pineapple bread, drain a 20-ounce can of crushed pineapple in juice, saving the juice for another use (or to drink). Place the pineapple in a double layer of paper towels, and wring it until it's as dry as can be. Substitute it for one of the bananas in the recipe; you may need to increase the baking time by 5 to 10 minutes. For banana mini muffins, scoop the batter into a mini-muffin pan (in batches), and bake the muffins in a preheated 325°F oven for 10 minutes, or until they test done. Yield: 32 mini muffins.
