Wholesome Wheat Bread
My sister and I were in 4-H, and Mom was our breads project leader for years. Because of that early training, fresh homemade bread like this is a staple in my own kitchen.

Very good taste but it didn't bake through so I will have to try cooking longer next time.
Need to try again
I made three 1-pound loaves from this recipe. It rose nicely, toasts beautifully, and holds together well for sandwiches. A great all-round bread! (Oh! It also freezes well.)
This bread is one of my all time favorites to make. It's filling, delicious and doesn't need anything with it (however this with a little bit of butter is amazing). If this is a recipe that you're debating about making or not because of the limited number of reviews, I would strongly suggest trying it. It's worth it.
This loaf is nice and soft and light. It has a great flavor. It did not rise as much as I would have liked in the bread pans, but I think it may be partially due to me opening the oven door after about 10 minutes of baking to check on it and creating a draft. I cut a loaf warm, and it sliced very nicely, so I think it is a good bread for making sandwiches.
fantastic and easy recipe! only small change...I used honey and molasses (half and half) and used BEST for BREAD white all purpose flour for the white flour portion. so tender, flavorful, and easy!!!!!!!!
turned out very nice and rose well abovepans.
I make this almost every other day! We love this bread for sandwhiches! I recently tried this with coconut oil instead of the butter and agave instead of the honey and it is still amazing. I did add 1 tablespoon of vital wheat gluten per one 1 cup of wheat four and my kids really like the white wheat flourl.
