Whole Wheat Bread



Ingredients
2 cups warm (not hot) water
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup honey
5-6 cups hard wheat flour (can also be substituted or mixed with hard red or spelt)
3 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
2 Tbsp lecithin
2 tsp salt
1/4 cup of millet (optional, it gives it that crunch)

Instructions
Combine water, oil and honey in a bowl or mixer. Add 3 cups of flour, yeast, lecithin, salt and millet. Mix thoroughly. Add the remaining 2 to 3 cups of flour and knead for ten minutes until dough is smooth and elastic. Cover bowl with a moist towel and set in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes. Punch dough down and divide in half. Form into loaves and place into greased pans. Let rise for 30 minutes more (or until desired size). Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Enjoy!

Takes approx. 1 1/2 hr. to 2 hrs. to make. Makes two loaves
