Sweet Whole Wheat Bread - Homemade!


I made this bread in hopes of eating something more natural than the stuff they sell at the store packed with all kinds of additives. I was surprised how tasty it was. I was not expecting such good results.

Ingredients:
2 Cups White Flour
3 Cups Whole Wheat Flour

2) Lightly heat water, sugar, honey, butter and salt in a sauce pan unitll butter is dissolve.
3) Add water mixture to flour mixture and blend with a whisk or hand beater.
4) Slowly add the white flour, more or less if needed until you have a soft dough. It will be slightly sticky. Do NOT add so much flour that the dough is completely dry.
5) Place dough in a bowl and cover with a towel. Set in a warm place for 1 hour.
6) Punch dough down, divide into 2 pieces. Shape into loaves and place into greased loaf pans.
