Whole Wheat Bread – Bosch Recipe

5-6 cups fresh quality, hard red wheat
3 ½ cups warm water
1 Tbsp. salt
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup oil
2 Tbsp. dough enhancer
1 ½ Tbsp. instant yeast

Grind Wheat and set aside.

Put warm water in bread mixer. Add 2 cups of ground flour. Add salt, oil and honey (Combine oil and honey in the same measuring cup so the honey doesn’t stick to the cup). Add dough enhancer and yeast. Let sit for 3 –5 minutes.

Turn bread mixer to speed 2 (medium speed) and add the rest of flour gradually. When the dough begins to barely leave the sides of the mixer, that’s enough flour (too much flour makes the bread heavy). Mix for 12 minutes.

Mold into loaves (makes about 3-4 loaves depending on bread pan size) with oiled hands and oiled counter. Squeeze out the air bubbles by smoothing and patting the tops of the loaf, pinching the seam on the bottom.

Let rise until double in size or about 45 minutes to an hour. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes.
