100% whole wheat bread (abm)

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1⅛ cup Water
3 cups Whole Wheat Flour
3 tablespoons Sugar
1½ teaspoon Salt
2 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast

Directions

This is pretty heavy bread, but I like it that way. For a better raise, try adding ⅓ cup of gluten, and you may need a bit more water, then.

Use Whole Wheat mode. Timer ok. Note: Whole wheat varies greatly in how much water it absorbs. The amounts of water shown are the ones that work for me. Check on the dough after the first few minutes of kneading. If it is too thin, add flour, 1 T at the time. If the dough is too dry and does not form a smooth ball, add water, 1 T at the time. Since bread machines can handle relatively moist do, it is better to err on the moist side (which will result in heavier bread, if it is much too much).
