Ingredients

  • 2 cups of luke warm water
  • 2 Tbsp yeast – saf instant yeast - my favorite because professional bakers use it!
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 7 cups whole wheat flour
  • 8 teaspoons vital wheat gluten
  • 2 teaspoons salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add water, oil, yeast, eggs, honey to your mixer with whisk attachment. Mix them together until a batter. Add in half of the flour, mix well until all incorporated.
  2. Add salt, gluten. Mix well. Switch to dough hook. Add all the remaining flour at once. Slowly knead until it’s all incorporated.
  3. If it's stuck at the very bottom only a little bit – add enough flour until the perfect consistency. Feels like playdough. Knead for a few minutes with the hook 2-3 minutes.
  4. Form it into rolls or two loaf pans. Let rise until doubled in size. Or you can go ahead and freeze them.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees. Loaf of bread 30 minutes – rolls it’s 20-25 minutes or until they look done. Brush with butter after they're out of the oven.
  6. If they are frozen: Then take out and thaw on cookie sheet when ready to bake. Let it rise until double in size.
