Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
3 tbsp melted butter or 3 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp honey or 2 tbsp molasses or 2 tbsp maple syrup
3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tbsp vital wheat gluten
2 tbsp flax seed meal (optional)
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp instant yeast

Directions:

To prepare the dough:.
(Hand method) Combine all ingredients and mix until you have a shaggy dough. The dough will seem wet. Let the dough rest, covered, for 20 minutes, then knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Allow dough to rise, covered, for 1-2 hours or until puffy and nearly doubled in bulk.
(Mixer method) In bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine all ingredients and mix them until you have a shaggy dough. The dough will seem wet. Let the dough rest for 20 minutes, then knead by machine until fairly smooth, about 5-10 minutes. Allow dough to rise, covered, for 1-2 hours or until puffy and nearly doubled in bulk.
(Bread machine method) Place all ingredients in bread machine and set to dough cycle.
To shape loaves:.
After the dough has risen, gently deflate, shape into a log, and place in a lightly greased 9x5 bread pan or 2 small pans. Cover with towel or lightly greased plastic wrap and allow to rise in warm place for about 30 mins to 1 hour, until its crowned about 2 inches over the rim of the pan. Preheat oven to 350 about halfway through the rising time.
To bake the loaves:.
If desired, brush top of loaf with milk or egg white and sprinkle with oatmeal, poppy seeds, etc. Bake bread in preheated 350 oven for 45 minutes or until it turns a deep brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
