This will be my new go-to wheat bread recipe. It's a very simple recipe with no milk or eggs. It's a light fluffy loaf rather than a heavy dense loaf. Perfect for sandwiches. I had to change the recipe to fit what I had on hand. The only changes I made was using 3 C King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour, 3 C Bread Flour (I didn't need the whole 7 C of flour), and added 3 TB Vital Wheat Gluten to get a wonderful rise. This bread is fabulous! I love that it’s low sodium!

This was my first EVER time making bread and I used this recipe. It was so simple and I really enjoyed making it! The bread came out perfectly and tasted SO GOOD, I was thrilled. It took a lot more flour than I expected, that's for sure... ;)

This was my first time making bread, so I prepared myself for failure, but this bread turned out amazing! Yummo! However I made a few changes, partly because I had to! I thought my kitchen aid would explode! I could only use 3 1/2 cups of flour. I also increased the honey to a 1/2 cup and substituted applesauce for the oil. It did take about 25-30 extra minutes to rise. Anyways, regardless of almost killing my kitchen aid with so much flour, this bread was absolutely delicious!! It boosted my confidence for making bread!

I made this the other day for the first time. I did as so many reviewers suggested and used 1/2 cup of Honey and 1 cup or Whole Wheat Flour and about 3.5 cups of All-Purpose in the second flour addition. My first rise was beautiful, and while my second rise never got anywhere near the top of the pan, it still tasted wonderful. I hope that next time I'll have better luck with the rising (it was cold in my house, boo) but even though its a bit "heavy" it still makes a great piece of toast. Thanks for the recipe!

This is a very easy bread for anyone to make. I did increase the honey to 1/2 cup as others had suggested as well as added 1/2 t salt to recipe. The bread tasted great with butter and applebutter but is a touch too sweet for sandwich bread. When I make this again I will try the recipe as it is written.

This was really good with the changes that I made. Instead of adding a 1/3 of a cup of honey, I doubled that to 2/3 cup. I also added 1/2 cup of wheat germ. I think that it wouldn't have been so good if I just used 1/3 cup of honey but that is just me.

The first time I made this I didn't like it much, until I realized that my wheat flour was old. I made it again and it was MUCH better. Always make sure that your wheat flour hasn't been sitting in the cupboard too long!

Great recipe. It took me three tries to get it right. The first time I used expired yeast (remember to check that date) and it didn't rise too well. The second time I let it rise too much and it wound up collapsing. I still ate it but thought it should be just a bit sweeter. The third time I used 1/2 cup of honey, exchanged one cup of white flour with an additional cup of wheat flour. I only let it rise the second time for two hours. The bread was perfect. It has to be just about the best tasting bread I can remember eating. I'm gonna try making dinner rolls with this recipe. I may also experiment with adding cranberries or some other fruit. Toasting a slice of this in the morning with a little butter sounds delicious.

OMG! This is the best bread ever! I make it every week now, but I've made the following changes: 2/3 cup honey & instead of 5 cups all purpose flour, at that step I use 4 cups all purpose & one cup whole wheat. I was very worried the first time I made this because the dough was extremely dry & it took twice as long to rise. I honestly thought the whole batch was going in the garbage. But I watched a tutorial on the Stretch & Fold technique. After the first rise, it was back on track & it was beautiful. It's been my best bread to date & a dream to slice. I make this bread every weekend & forbid store bought bread in my house!

A winner! I am thrilled to find something I can replace for buying bread at the store every week. It can be tough to find a good bread recipe that doesn't require a machine. I used bread flour for this, and followed it otherwise to a t. I will be making this recipe on a regular basis.

PHENOMENAL! The dough will be quite stiff at first - don't worry. It still makes the softest, fluffiest sandwich loaf. Really delicious!

The portions are completely off. I started off kneading this bread by hand. It was nearly impossible. It made a pretty lame, flat loaf of bread. The reviews make no sense. I make several loafs of bread per week and this was the worst.

I was worried because last time I made bread the outer part was tough and hard but this wasn't. It was perfect and delicious. I'm so happy this turned out right. I froze one loaf since we probably won't be able to get to it before it goes bad. Thanks for the great recipe!

The quest is over! This recipe has replaced store bought bread for my family. It has a great texture, a short ingredient list, and uses honey as a sweetener, which I can get locally. Goodbye store bread with weird chemicals packaged in plastic bags shipped to me from who knows where! :)
