How to Make Easy Whole Wheat Bread
- In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, and oil to the yeast mixture.
- Using a stand mixer with a dough hook or your hands, knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. If using your hands, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until it is well combined and feels smooth.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough to release the air. Shape the dough into one large loaf or two smaller loaves.
- Place the loaves in greased loaf pans. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Remove from the pans and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm!
