I have been experimenting and trying to make a whole wheat bread without any bit of white flour, which would be nice because whole wheat purchased at the LDS Cannery is a lot cheaper than white flour which has risen in price to over $2 a pound! There is also the added health benefit and fullness factor here in the Duffey house. With 4 boys, 2 hungry adults and an occasionally foreign exchange student or guest we have to potential of eating a loaf or more per day.
So I have found a recipe that worked pretty well, it didn't come out of the oven looking very pretty, but it doesn't taste anything like the dense whole wheat I had made in the past. The recipe comes from the book: "Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day". Its called "100 Percent Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread". My homeschool friend Laura knows that I have been trying to make bread and she was nice enough to bring this to my attention and give me a copy of recipe out of her Mother Earth Magazine. Below is a link to the same article online, I strongly encourage you to read all about it. If you hit the "print" button below the title under "Article Tools", it will load the several page article all in one screen so you don't have to hit "next" over and over. Its well worth it!
