This bread was just amazing to me, from the moment I sliced into it I had a smile on my face because it looks good and tastes even better. It is light and fluffy with a texture very similar to store bought bread- minus the processed ingredients and preservatives! I made my dough in the bread machine and then baked in the oven. I have been looking for a recipe that I can make at home once or twice a week to replace store-bought artisan bread and this is THE ONE!

Oh my. An amazing whole wheat bread that’s better than I can buy and I made it myself! I used my bread machine for the whole cycle; I didn’t shape the dough into loafs. It made the tallest, most beautiful loaf of bread to ever come out of my machine. I also substituted 1 cup of white flour for one cup of the whole wheat (I wasn’t sure how it would rise in the machine), but next time I’ll try all wheat and I bet it will be amazing.

I have been looking for a 100% whole wheat recipe for a while now and Oh. My. Goodness. I’m now convinced that vital wheat gluten is the solution to all my bread woes. Used olive oil and omitted the flax. Fluffy, soft, and delicious. I will be making this bread once a week. Thank you!

I love this recipe and have made it twice already. However, I haven’t had luck in getting the loaf to rise the 2 inches above the pan. It rises beautifully when it’s in the bowl, but once it’s shaped, it won’t go much beyond 1/2 an inch. Any suggestions?

Great Bread! I used canola oil (more cost efficient), molasses, and wheat germ…super good. Last week I made two loaves of bread. I just finished making a double batch of dough (had to knead it longer than single batch) which I shaped it into 8 hamburger buns and 8 hotdog buns. Super easy!

Made this bread today using coconut oil, molasses, and subbed one cup white flour because I didn’t have any what gluten. So awesome! Thanks for the recipe!

Awesome whole wheat bread, so easy, and so delicious. I use white whole wheat flour, and use either ground flax seeds, wheat germ, or even ground oatmeal as an addition. Delicious!

This was soooo perfect! Moist and delicious–and worked better than any bread recipe I’ve tried at high altitude here in Colorado! Maybe the vital wheat gluten was what made the difference…this is a keeper!

Excellent! Although I am new to bread making, I found this recipe to be easy to follow. The bread tasted great! We’ll be making this again!

Who would have thought such a simple recipe could be so fantastic? I have made several whole wheat breads, and this one is my favorite so far. I used olive oil and molasses, and I can’t wait to try it with honey! Yum!
