Look at this gorgeous loaf! Nothing beats the sight of freshly baked bread just waiting to be sliced. This recipe is easy to follow, and all you need are some simple ingredients you probably already have at home.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Gather these ingredients before we dive into the mixing bowl:

3 cups whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon instant yeast
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons honey or sugar
1 ½ cups warm water (about 110°F)
2 tablespoons olive oil (or any oil of your choice)

Let’s Get to Cooking!

Now, let’s turn these ingredients into something special:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, instant yeast, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix the warm water, honey (or sugar), and olive oil together. Give it a good stir until the honey/sugar is dissolved.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix it up until everything is well combined and a dough starts to form.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 8-10 minutes, until it’s smooth and elastic. Don’t be afraid to get your hands a little messy!
Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it doubles in size.
After the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Shape it into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf pan.
Cover the loaf again and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes, or until it’s golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Then slice it once it’s cool!

And there you have it! Homemade whole wheat bread that’s perfect for sandwiches, toasting or just slathering with butter. Enjoy every single bite!
