Honey Wheat Bread Recipe: Delicious and Nutritious
Looking for a healthy and tasty bread recipe? Try making Honey Wheat Bread! This bread is made with whole wheat flour and sweetened with honey, making it a nutritious and flavorful option for your daily bread needs.

Ingredients (for 1 loaf):

- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 1/4 cups warm water
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 tsp salt


Cooking Tips:

- Use warm water (around 110°F) to activate the yeast. If the water is too hot, it can kill the yeast and prevent the bread from rising.
- Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes to develop gluten and create a chewy texture.
- Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, yeast, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, mix together the honey, vegetable oil, and warm water.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10-15 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour.
6. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
7. Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased bread pan.
8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
9. Let the bread cool before slicing and serving.
Appearance and Taste:
