I've never made bread before, but I attempted this recipe from a friend. And it turned out perfectly; it is delicious! It's super easy, too. If I can do it, anyone can!

Ingredients (7)

serves

8-½ cups Whole Wheat Flour, Or As Needed To Make A Soft Doughflour
4-½ teaspoons Rapid-rise Yeastyeast
2-½ teaspoons Fine Sea Saltsalt
1-½ cup Skim Milkmilk
1-½ cup Waterwater
¼ cups Honeyhoney
¼ cups Oiloil

Instructions (4 steps)

01Combine 3-1/2 cups flour, undissolved yeast and salt in a large mixing bowl. Heat milk, water, honey and oil until very warm (not boiling—it should just be a bit warmer than lukewarm). Gradually add to the flour mixture; beat 2 minutes at medium speed with an electric mixer, scraping the bowl occasionally. Add 1 cup flour; stir until combined, scraping bowl occasionally. With a spoon or clean hands, mix in enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough. (Note: I only used about 7 cups of flour instead of the whole 8 to 8 1/2.)
02Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 6 to 8 minutes (I kneaded for only about 2 minutes because I got lazy). Cover kneaded dough and let rest 10 minutes.
03Divide dough in half. Roll each half to a 12 x 7-inch rectangle. Beginning at the short end of each rectangle, roll up tightly as for a jelly roll. Pinch seams and ends to seal. Place, seam side down, in 2 greased 8-1/2 x 4-1/2-inch loaf pans. Cover; let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 to 60 minutes.
