Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups of lukewarm water
- 2 tbsp of butter
- A quarter cup of pure raw honey
- 3 ½ cups of whole wheat flour
- A quarter cup of flaxseed meal
- A quarter cup of vital wheat gluten
- 1 ½ tsp of salt
- 1 ½ tbsp of powdered dry milk
- 2 tsp of active dry yeast
Step 1
Start by gently combining warm water, butter, honey, whole wheat flour, flaxseed meal, vital wheat gluten, salt, dry milk, and yeast in the designated compartments of your bread machine, following the given order.
Step 2
Next, initiate the basic wheat bread cycle but remember to tweak the cooking timer slightly to reduce the baking duration by 25 to 30 minutes.
Step 3
Personally, I prefer to keep an eye on the bread and take it out once it appears slightly underdone, ensuring it doesn't brown too much.
Step 4
For those who enjoy a more crusty texture, feel free to allow the bread to bake for the entire specified time.
Step 5
Upon completion of the cycle, carefully extract the loaf from the machine, ready to be enjoyed.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your ingredients fresh by storing your whole-wheat flour, honey, and yeast in airtight containers in a cool, dark pantry.
- 2. Organize your baking tools and bread machine accessories in one designated drawer or cupboard for easy access when you're ready to bake.
