Honey Wheat Bread






Makes 2 loaves (12 slices each. One slice = 3 points + )



  • 3 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1 T. active dry yeast
  • 1-¾ c. water
  • ⅓ c. honey
  • 3 T. light stick butter
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 c. white whole wheat flour



Combine 2 c. all -purpose flour and yeast in a mixing bowl.
Combine water with honey and butter and microwave 1-2 minutes or until butter is almost melted. Add water mixture to flour mixture. With hook attachment, beat on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping down the side of the bowl. Add salt and 2 c. white whole what flour. Continue beating, adding remaining all-purpose flour as necessary. Knead the dough with the dough hook for 5-7 minutes. Place in a bowl coated with cooking spray. Cover and place in a warm spot until doubled ( about 1 hour). Gently punch dough down and form into 2 loaves. Place into loaf pans coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise until doubled. Bake at 375 for 35-45 minutes or until bread sounds hollow when slightly tapped.

    1. Not sure how this would work in a bread machine as this recipe makes 2 loaves. Bread machines usually require more flour. I guess you could try it as is, just putting all of the ingredients in the bread machine. See how it turns out and let me know.
