Farm to market grains' bread

• 3 cups very warm water
  
• 1/3 cup canola oil
  
• 1/3 cup honey
  
• 1 and 1/2 tbsp. instant yeast
  
• 1 and 1/2 tbsp. wheat gluten*
  
• 1 tbsp. salt
  
• 6-8 cups Farm to Market Grains hard white or hard red flour
  

Using a bread dough mixer add water, oil, honey, salt, yeast, half the flour, and wheat gluten to the mixing bowl. Mix and continue to add flour until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.  Knead for 10 minutes (the dough should be smooth and elastic).  Out dough in an oiled bowl and let rise naturally until doubled in size.  After rising divide the dough into 3 equal portions and shape into loaves.  Put the loaves into greased loaf pans and let rise until doubled in size.  Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes.

*The wheat gluten helps the bread to rise and be less heavy.  Remember all our flour is whole grain, which breaks down the gluten.  Our whole grain flour is why more gluten is needed!
