This recipe makes 4 large loaves of some of the yummiest bread I’ve ever eaten! And, the kids don’t even notice that it’s good for them!
Christy’s Whole Wheat Bread
Yield: 4 loaves
- 9 tsp (4 packages if you use those) active dry yeast
- 4.5 cups warm water (110-115 degrees)
dissolve yeast into the water
- 6 tbsp brown sugar
- 2/3 cup olive oil
- 2/3 cup honey
- 2 tbsp salt
- 10 cups WW flour
- 4-6 cups white flour
Add ingredients into yeasty water and mix.
Add the flours (ww, then 4 of the white – you’ll add rest as needed while kneading). Knead for 10 minutes.
Put in grease bowl and cover with plastic wrap and put in a warm place. Let rise for about 1 hour or until dough doubles.
Punch down; divide into 4 loaves, put into greased loaf pans. Rise to double – about 30-45 min.
Bake @ 375 for 25-30 min. Remove immediately to cool.


This is like mine except that I don’t use brown sugar and I use only whole wheat. Because it’s all ww I do add the Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C powder) as it seems to help with texture and is a natural preservative. It’s great that your kids will eat it!
