Description: This is the most awesome wheat bread I have ever eaten. It is worth the extra effort and because this recipe makes 4 loaves, you can freeze them and have enough for awhile :) Rising time included in prep.
Ingredients:
2 envelopes yeast
4 cups water
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup molasses
1/2 cup honey
2 teaspoons salt
6 cups whole wheat flour
4 cups white flour
Steps:
Dissolve yeast in warm water.
In a large bowl, combine butter, molasses, honey and salt and mix well.
Add yeast mixture and then gradually add flours.
Turn onto floured surface and knead until smooth.
Place in buttered bowl and let rise until double.
Punch down and let rest for a few minutes.
Divide dough into 4 parts and shape into loaves.
Place in greased pans and let rise for about an hour.
