I took some years to come up with a 100% whole wheat recipe to use in our breadmaker. The following works both for bread (run whole cycle) or for rolls. The rolls are invariably a hit at pot lucks. and is something to bring along when we get invited to dinner. The rolls ‘keep’ better than the loaf. I try to freeze about half while they’re still warm. Keeps very well that way.

If you don’t have a bread machine, check your local thrift shop. There should be a lot of ’em now that bread’s being demonized (as butter and eggs were).

I’ve had best luck with King Arthur organic WW flour. I am using a 1lb Zojirushi breadmaker. Hope this helps someone…

• 1C — 2 TB Water
• 2 Tbsp Honey
• 2 Tbsp (28g) Unsalted Butter
• 2⅓ C W W Flour 331g (355g)
• 1 tsp Salt 6g
• ¼ C Powdered milk 23g (12g)
• 1 tsp Yeast 3g

Put ingredients (except for yeast) in bread machine “bucket”,

wet ingredients first, then flour. Spread flour so no water shows. Add remaining dry ingredients, then yeast

If making rolls, run ‘dough’ cycle. When cycle completes dump onto floured board. Pull out a bit, then cut into roll sized pieces. Put on pan. Put pan on stovetop with towel over it so some hot air from oven runs beneath it.

Rise 30+ min.

Heat oven to 400.

Bake approximately 12 min.
