The cheat sheet will not come to me 🤔

I tried for a year to bake bread using freshly milled wheat. Quick breads were easy, but the bread was always a disaster. I refused to give up. Your recipe has given me consistently amazing results. I like to use my electric knife for slicing. It is easy to get consistent slices. I then freeze the slices in zip lock bags and pull it out as needed. No wasted bread here. Thank you for sharing your recipe and technique. Seriously, anyone can do this if they are using your recipe. The only thing I would add for beginners is an instant read thermometer. Every oven is different, and as long as your bread reaches 190 to 200 degrees F, it is fully baked.

Thank you for saying this. I’ve never successfully baked yeast bread so I’m going to give this one a try.

I’m so glad I discovered you!!! Just wanted to drop in and remind you of that. I’m folding laundry and folding another receiving blanket I used to make bread. I can’t stand putting them away, my heart can’t stand getting rid of them. Some of them were mine even before I used them for my babies. Something as simple as recommending their use for rising bread has brightened this mama’s heart today and I just felt the need to tell you I appreciate you!!!

Main reason I started mine! 😀

I love this recipe. I'm new to the fresh ground wheat club. but I have baked 30 loaves of this bread so far! Family, friends and neighbors love it! I have experimented with the original recipe sometimes. For instance, I have used white sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup, honey and a combination of all of them. I've substituted 2 cups of cultured buttermilk for an equal amount of water. Melted butter or olive oil. If I ever get enough leftover bacon grease, I'll try that. This is a very forgiving recipe and I've added cinnamon and raisins for a delicious breakfast bread. Next will be a cheese and maybe add some jalapenos. Thank you so much for making my entry into grinding my own grains so painless. p.s. The waffles were a big hit!

I love your channel. because you indicate how much wheat berries I need to mill to obtain the amount of flour needed for a certain recipe. Thank you for sharing your life and your wonderful recipes. I am 78 and I have been grinding wheat and making 100% whole wheat bread since the 1970’s. I use a Nutrimill and a Bosch machine. Lately I have been using an automatic bread maker because of mobility issues. ❤😊

My husband ordered a Bosch mixer for me, as a complete surprise, about 20 years ago. He also, another time, surprised me with a NutriMill Classic grain mill. Both items have been used & loved for years. As my husband was the one to order these, I had no idea all the items they carried. I placed my order for hard red wheat today. Thank you for sharing!

This turned out great! Since starting to mill my own grains, I tried several recipes for sandwich bread and they turned out too dense or too soft and crumbly. Thankfully after trying your recipe, it worked perfectly! I’m so grateful, thank you for sharing it! ☺️

Welcome!!

I’m a newbie! Been at this for about 6 weeks. I found Sue Becker thru you. I decided to invest in my family’s health and bought a mockmill and the ankasrum. Game changer from my kitchenaid. I got Sue’s book and use her basic yeast bread recipe except I tweak similar to yours. I make a sponge first by adding all ingredients except the vital wheat gluten and salt. I use 2-3 cups flour for the sponge. It sits for 30 minutes until it is bubbly and rising up. Then I add rest of flour and salt.....I’m in east tx and have found I need 5-5 1/2 cups flour. And sometimes when that is still fairly sticky I add oil to my hands and knead which makes a world of difference. Now my problem is that we are going thru it faster than I expected! Especially when I make cinnamon bread. I am gonna have to get 2 more loaf pans and double the recipe! I am trying and herb bread next! Then brownies.....we are loving the positive digestion!

I always love your content. I've found.... to my despair... that freshly ground is a whole different animal than store-bought. All the bread making I learned over the years had to be relearned. BUT... it's so worth it, esp when people say, "How do you get your bread so light and fluffy?" That's worth every bit of trouble.... and knowing I'm feeding them not only yummy bread but truly healthy bread. That's really cool.

I found you last year and bought a mill and whole wheat berries and learned how to make fresh bread. We love it. It takes some time but that stuff at the store is mostly junk. Now i got lazy after 2 knee replacements. Now i’m getting back to making it. Instead loafs can i make it more rustic. My proofing basket is round and i lay on a baking sheet. I understand baking time may change some. I think 2 loafs that way.

This is great. I made one loaf and it rose in 20 minutes and then I was almost afraid it was going to hit the top of my oven. Now to wait for it to cool 😂

Holy crap! so that is how you make soft bread, its all in the folding of the bread! wow I feel like an idiot , I can't wait to try this new technique!

Wow so nice my friend😊

When we found this recipe we made our fourth loaf of bread. We followed your directions exactly except we used less honey. I do not like sweat bread. This bread turned out much better than the other three but it still sunk a little in the middle like the other three. It did taste much better though. Eva

Bosch mixers are awesome. My mom was given the Bosch mixer and Magic Mill grinder for Christmas when I was in Jr High, she is still using that mill and mixer some 43+ years later. So to that point her bread is like a rock, no offense but it is too dense for me so never thought I would find myself here. Never the type to wade into anything I plunged-- purchased the Nutrimill Harvest and Bosch mixer (Pleasant Hill Grains) and it arrived a few days ago. My first loaf is baking as I write this and the house smells awesome. Thought making bread was a day long process, especially if milling the grain, well just discovered this is not so---I did it in a few hours (learning curve). Can already tell the loaf is not going to be a rock as it was an over achiever "rising" loaf. Oh my that instance yeast is the greatest thing, since sliced bread....ok corny. Glad that I found your channel and looking forward to this adventure. Next is Ezekiel bread--still collecting all the grains and beans.

Love your recipes! Thanks so much for all of the incredible information you put out. I just tried this recipe last night. It turned out really well! One question: if I'm getting bread with slightly more density at the bottom of the loaf (much* less of this issue with this recipe than others I have tried!) do I just need to work on rolling it thinner and the shaping portion? Or is that an indicator that I let it rise overlong? That being said, it's still a wonderfully soft bread that I will keep making and working on. :)

At this time, I would get my flour at the mill not too far from my house. Now, is there a specific grind I need to ask or simply take what they have? Also, can I use the same recipe with white flour (does quantity of flour change) ? Thank you very much in advance for your reply. Stéphane :)

I would just get their bread flour (fine milled). No, APF recipes do not work for whole grain. This is literally why my channel exists - I do all the mad scientist experimentation to convert them! :-)

what happens if I don't add oil? Thanks for all you do an really really appreciate it!!!

Your bread isn't going to turn out very well. Oil is essential.

Replace with apple sauce will work?

I just discovered your channel. I am wanting to buy a grain mill. I probably will never want to make breads that have coarse chunks of grain in it so between the Wondermill and the Nutrimill Classic, which one would you choose if you could only have one of them?

Is one type of oil better than another? I know we all have our preferences but I'm curious as to what others use. Thank you.

Depends on the bread, but I typically use either olive or peanut.

Someone may have asked, but does this work with pre ground wheat flour that I buy from my local market? Thought I'd ask before I try. Thank you.

If it's fresh, yes. But keep in mind, wheat oxidizes fast (it goes stale). That's why the stuff in stores is garbage, they have to kill it so it will last on shelves longer.

How do you store the bread after it has cooled? And how long will it last before going dry or moldy, etc.?

It should be eaten within a day or two for best results.

Hi Felicia, is it possible to add less honey? I prefer a loaf that is not as sweet. Would that still work? Thanks for your help with all things grain. God bless.

Yeppers! You can leave it out completely although I have found it does help soften the bread a bit.

I have found with this recipe that the amount of honey does not even register as a sweet bread.

Thanks so much. I will have a go at leaving half of the honey out. Have a wonderful day.
