How To Make Homemade Wheat Bread » Video Tutorial

Brand new at making bread? Or maybe you've just been to afraid to tackle the job! This is the perfect beginner's guide to making homemade whole wheat bread. It's simple, and very easy!

​Ingredients:​

• 2 Cups warm Water (110*F-120*F)

• 1 Packet Rapid Rise Instant Yeast

• 1/4 cup molasses

• 4-6 Cups Wheat Flour

• 1/2 tsp salt (optional-makes it fluffier)

• 1/2 Cup Canola Oil

• 1/2 tsp salt

Optional: 1 Tsp butter for top of loaves

​Directions:

• Add molasses to the warm water and stir with a spoon. Sprinkle yeast on top and let sit for 5-10 minutes

• In mixing bowl, add oil to 2 cups wheat flour. Mix in flax seed/meal (optional) & Knead for about 30 seconds to create air pockets

• Slowly add remaining flour (1/2 Cup at a time) and knead for about 10 seconds between each addition

• Knead dough for 7-10 minutes on medium/high speed

• Spray olive oil in bowl (or apply if you don’t have the spray) and form a ball with the dough. Roll the dough around in the olive oil then cover with plastic wrap. Let sit for an hour and a half

• Turn bowl over on silicone rubber baking mat (or floured parchment paper) and punch down. Flatten out to make a rectangular shape.

• SPRAY LOAF PANS WITH OLIVE OIL AND cut dough in HALF. FORM LOAVES WITH EACH HALF BY ROLLING. COVER WITH PLASTIC WRAP, PREHEAT OVEN TO 400*F, AND LET DOUGH SIT FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES. IT SHOULD BE ABOUT AN INCH ABOVE THE SIDE OF THE LOAF PAN BEFORE YOU POP IT IN THE OVEN.

• Bake at 400*F for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350*F but don’t take the bread out. You’ll bake it at 350*F for about 20 minutes.

• immediately dump bread onto cooling rack and rub top of loaves with butter (it’s prettiest when you cut it with a bread knife)

• enjoy!!!
