Foolproof Whole Wheat Bread

from Darin's mom

1. Add 1 1/2 Tbsp. yeast to 3/4 C. warm water. Let stand 10-15 min. (A little sugar will speed it up.)

2. Combine 3 C. warm water with 5 1/4 cup wheat flour. Mix until blended.

3. Add 1/2 C. oil, 1/2 C. honey, 1 1/2 Tbsp. salt. Mix. Add 1/2 C. wheat flour and yeast preparation. Add 3 Tbsp dough enhancer and 3 Tbsp Vital Wheat Gluten, if you like (Not absolutely necessary, but I like it). Mix thoroughly.

4. Add 3-3 1/2 C. wheat flour. Mix 10 min., or until the dough begins to pull from the side of the mixing bowl.

5. Spray pans w/ oil. Oil hands. Remove dough from mixer and mold into 3 pans. Cover with damp cloth and let rise 25-35 minutes(until it increases 1/3).

6. Bake at 350* for 35 minutes.
