How to Make Moist Light Fluffy Whole Wheat Bread
- In a large bowl, combine warm water (105-115°F), sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the oil and eggs to the yeast mixture and whisk until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, vital wheat gluten, dough enhancer, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. Add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
