Honey Whole Wheat Bread

OK I know its not a dessert, BUT if you put homemade raspberry freezer jam on fresh bread, its dessert!


Makes 2 loaves


Ingredients:
3 cups whole wheat flour
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup shortening
1 tablespoon salt
2 packages (4 1/2 teaspoons) yeast
2 1/4 cups very warm water
3-4 cups all purpose flour

Instructions:
Note:  this is the way i do it, not the way the book says so.  :)

In kitchen aid mixer, add water honey shortening salt and whole wheat flour.  
start mixing on low
add yeast.
let mix until whole wheat flour is all mixed in
then start adding the all purpose flour, i usually do 1 cup at a time.  
Add until just slightly sticky when you touch it.  
Spray pans, split dough put in pans.  
Put pans in COLD oven then turn oven on to 350*F and set timer for 30  minutes, bake until golden brown on top.
I don't let the bread rise in the pans or in the bowl.
