Amish Soft Honey Whole Wheat Bread
Prep Time: 1 day
Cook Time: 1 days
Servings: SERVES 60 , 3 loaves
Ingredients
3/4 cup Sue Bee Honey
3 cups warm water
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons yeast
3 eggs
3/4 cup Crisco
2 tablespoons salt
11-12 cups whole wheat flour
4 tablespoons wheat gluten
Directions
- Mix water with yeast and sugar and let sit until foamy (about 10 minutes). In the meanwhile, put the 3 eggs (in the shell) in a bowl of hot water (to bring the eggs to room temperature).
- Put flour, salt, and gluten in bowl.
- Pour in yeast mixture and stir until combined. Add in honey, eggs, and crisco until combined, scraping sides. (I usually use an egg beater for this).
- Add more wheat flour and knead until smooth.
- Let set in warm place for about an hour until double in size.
- Divide into 3 loaves. Let rise again in warm place until doubled (about 1-1/2 hours).
- Bake as regular bread (I bake about 35 minutes at 375 or until the interior of the bread is 190 degrees using electric thermometer if you have one).
- Enjoy!

Because honey is sweeter than sugar, you can use less honey than sugar in recipes.
