Everyday Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread

Ingredients

3 cups whole wheat flour
4 cups all purpose flour
2 1/2 tsp. yeast (active or instant)
3 tsp. table salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 Tbsp. vital wheat gluten (optional, but helps with the rise of whole wheat breads)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups warm water

Method

For instant yeast, simple combine all the dry ingredients, including yeast then add oil and very warm water. Combine to a dough, adding more flour (or a bit more water) if necessary. Knead to a good consistency, place in oiled bowl, cover and let rise until doubled. Divide into two pieces and shape into loaf. Place into greased 8x4 loaf pans and let rise. Bake in a pre-heated 375° F. oven for 35-45 minutes.

For active dry yeast, proof yeast in 1/2 cup warm water. Add to dry ingredients. Add vegetable oil and water, reducing water amount to 2 cups. Proceed as above.
