Anne's Fabulous Whole Wheat Bread

Soft 100% Whole Wheat bread.



4 cups whole wheat flour (spoon flour into the measuring cup and level it off)
2 Tablespoons wheat gluten
1/2 teaspoon dough conditioner
2 teaspoon salt (may use 1 1/2 tsp)
2 1/2 Tablespoons canola oil (if you have unsweetened applesauce, use 1 T oil, 1 1/2 T applesauce)
2 Tablespoons honey
1 3/4 cup water
1 Tablespoon yeast (scant)

Put all these, in order and without the yeast, into the bread pan of your bread machine. Put the bread pan into the machine and select “Quick Bake” “XL” “Light” and press start. Then measure the yeast into the handy yeast dispenser at the top (or add with the rest of the ingredients if you don't have a dispenser). Press Start.

Dough Conditioner

¾ cup lecithin
3 Tablespoons ascorbic acid
2 Tablespoons ginger
3 Tablespoons cornstarch

Store in air tight container at room temperature.

Cinnamon and Walnut Version
Just add a heaping tablespoon of cinnamon and a couple of handfuls of walnuts, chopped. It smells heavenly when baking.

You can also purchase dough conditioner/dough enhancer online or in cooking shops.
