This bread is delicious. My favorite way to eat it is cut in thick slices, fresh out of the oven, with butter and cheese. It’s nice to know what ingredients are in it, and that it doesn’t have all sorts of weird chemicals.

HOW LONG DOES HOMEMADE WHEAT BREAD LAST?
Homemade bread doesn’t last quite as long as store-bought, and that’s because it doesn’t have all those same preservatives to keep it shelf-stable.
Once this bread is completely cool, slip it into a plastic bag to keep it from drying out. Then keep in in the fridge. It should last for at least a week.
You can also freeze it! I’d recommend slicing it first, that way you can just grab a slice or two from the freezer whenever you need it. It thaws very quickly. At room temp, it would probably only take a half hour or so, or pop it into the microwave for around 10 or 15 seconds.

Is it really the regular cup amount u r taking?? looks less than 3 cups…Pls mention the measurement of 1 cup.
1 cup is 250ml, I used 3 cups for this recipe. The mixing bowl is really huge may be because of that the flour is looking less.
Thank u
Very easy and nice recipe. What should be the proportion of yeast for one cup of flour.
Thank you so much. Use 1 tsp of active dry yeast
So that's a 750 grm flour recipe? How big is the loaf exactly?
For how long should we keept the dough for proofing?
Until it's doubles in size. Do not follow time. As dough proofing depends on the current temperature in your city or county.

Thanks for the recipe. I did not get a truly fluffy whole wheat bread. It was denser and rose a bit less than your video. A couple of clarifications would be helpful. You used some type of plastic cup measure that looks a bit different from usual 1 cup measures. Can you confirm what your weight of 3 cups amounted to (mine came in at 422g)? Also, what brand of whole wheat did you use. I get great results with (King Arthur) bread flour or a 50-50 mix of bread and whole wheat flour (bread is very fluffy and airy and cust is crackly out of oven) but not that great with all whole wheat (which is what I want fora regular bread for home (healthier)). I am wondering if the differences could be due to the type of flour mix you are using.
Also, I used 1tbsp of Redstar active dry yeast which in your recipe whereas I use 1 tbsp with 4 cups of AP or bread flour. I guess more yeast can’t harm a recipe but wanted to check with you. Lastly, is oil (even sugar) optional (I prefer not to add them to keep the bread light and don’t add them in my bread flour dough). It is fun to bake and hope to get this recipe right in the next attempt. Thanks for sharing and for clarifying.
