This blog is a collection of my thoughts and ideas on living a healthy lifestyle. I believe that a healthy lifestyle is multi-faceted, and should include physical, mental and spiritual health. Although this blog is a way for me to organize my thoughts, hopefully it will be of benefit to someone else.

Whole Wheat Bread


Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups warm water
1T dry yeast
1T salt
6 c whole wheat flour
1/3 c honey
1/3 c oil

Place water, yeast and salt in a bowl and let sit for 5 minutes. Add 3 cups flour, oil and honey (*hint - if you measure and pour the oil first, then the honey will just slide right out of the measuring cup). Mix well. Add remaining 3 cups flour. Knead for 10 minutes. This is important. It needs to be 10 minutes so that the gluten will break down. Form into loaves. Let rise. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
