My friend used to make this when we were in school in Idaho, and the smell of it baking would fill our apartment, making everything feel so cozy and comforting. I love it with a spread of honey butter or jam in the morning, but it’s also amazing for French toast, sandwiches, or served alongside a bowl of soup. Honestly, no matter how you serve it, this bread is sure to be a hit with your family!
3 cups water – the water needs to be really warm to the touch but not too hot or it’ll kill the yeast. Yeast – 2 yeast packets – each packet is about two teaspoons. Or add about one and a half tablespoons of active dry yeast. Do not use instant yeast for this recipe. Shortening – using shortening instead of butter helps the bread hold its shape better. Honey – about a quarter cup, or more if you like your bread extra sweet. 1 tablespoon salt 6 cups whole wheat flour – I always like to reserve about half a cup of the flour to add later if the dough seems too dry. But bread tastes better with a soft dough. Of course, you can make this recipe with white flour, if that’s what you have on hand.
