Ingredients
2 tablespoons yeast
2 1/2 cups warm water
1/4 honey
1/3 oil
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 cup wheat germ
7 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
Method
Sprinkle yeast over 1/2 cup warm water in a small bowl and let stand to soften and dissolve. While yeast softens, combine remaining 2 cups water with honey, oil, salt wheat germ, and 2 cups flour. Beat by hand until smooth. Beat in dissolved yeast. Wait for a couple of minutes. Beat in remaining flour and knead by hand. Knead for 5 to 8 minutes. Shape into large greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise in a warm spot for about 40 minutes until doubled.
Preheat the oven to 190*C/375*F/gas mark 5. Shortly before the bread has risen completely bake for about 40 minutes or until nicely browned remove from the pan and cool completely before slicing.
