Baker's Notes
“Pure whole wheat bread can be dense and bitter. My secret is the 60/40 blend of whole wheat to bread flour — you get the nutrition without sacrificing texture.”

Just like from the bakery! The crust is crispy and the crumb is soft. Bravo for this extraordinary recipe.
Easy to prepare and so delicious! Even my picky kids went for seconds. This bread has become a staple in our home.
Excellent recipe. I followed the instructions to the letter and the result was perfect. My wife loved it. The best homemade bread I've made.
Made this last weekend and my family loved it! The bread came out perfectly golden with a beautiful crust. Will definitely be making this again.
