Wheat bread

You won’t wheat bread how easy it is to make homemade whole wheat bread! This recipe bakes up soft and is perfect for sandwiches. Have you ever made homemade bread?

I have to say I find it one of the most rewarding things to do. It can be a labor of love, but there is something so satisfying about it. It’s guaranteed to make you feel super-proud of yourself! And honestly the taste can’t be beat. So much better than store bought! I have a handful of great bread recipes on this site, like these homemade crescent rolls, this cinnamon bread, and these soft overnight brioche buns, but the most versatile, every day recipe of all would have to be this soft whole wheat bread. In my family, it’s our go-to!

We love it because it’s so soft, pillow-y, and moist, with just a slight bit of nuttiness from the whole grains. It’s really a perfect everyday loaf! Bread is carbs, there’s no way around that. But wheat bread is definitely a healthier alternative, because whole wheat flour has a lot more fiber and nutrition than the more processed white flours.

HOW TO MAKE SOFT WHOLE WHEAT BREAD Making homemade bread can often seem a little intimidating, but I promise you, this recipe is so easy. It’ll have you making your own bread every week! Start by dissolving your yeast in a little warm water. This usually takes about 5 minutes.

Once that’s looking kinda frothy, throw in the honey and butter. Then add just 2 cups of the flour. Beat that in for about 3 minutes, then gradually add in more flour until you see the dough forming a ball. Once that ball of dough is pulling away from the sides of the bowl cleanly, it’s time to knead. You can knead this bread dough by hand, or let your mixer do the work for you.
