Melissa's Famous Bread!

If you missed the bread making class last week, here is the fabulous bread recipe from Sister Knighton. If you do not have a Bosch and are doing it in a mixer, half the recipe so it doesn't burn up your motor and round up yeast to the next measurement. Thanks so much Melissa!

Honey whole wheat bread
(makes 4-12oz and 3-2lb loaves)
6c warm water (115F)
2TBS salt
2/3c canola oil
1c honey
8c fresh ground flour (to begin with)
1c dry milk powder
3TBS instant yeast
*optional* 2-3 TBS dough enhancer


In Bosch bowl, add water, salt, oil (first to coat cup) and honey (will slide out of already-oiled cup). Mix to combine. Add 4-6c fresh flour, dry milk powder, then remaining flour and yeast. Mix on speed one and continue to add flour until dough starts to clean the side of the bowl. Continue mixing for 7-10mins to develop gluten. Remove from bowl, weigh and shape into greased loaf pans. Bake at 350F until internal temp is 180F or about 18-20mins on mini loaves and 23-25mins on large (or until your desired crust color is achieved). Remove onto cooling racks immediately after baking. Rub unsalted butter over tops, allow to cool. Bag and freeze or eat, enjoy!
