Ingredients
Instructions
Mix the warm water
honey
and yeast in a stand-mixer bowl until mixture becomes foamy
about 5 minutes.
Add 1/2 of the whole wheat flour
along with the olive oil and salt. Mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until incorporated. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes.
Mix with a dough hook attachment on low speed
slowly adding the remaining whole wheat flour
increasing the speed to high. Mix on high until the batter is combined and not sticking to the sides of the bowl
about 7 minutes. Cover the bowl with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile
prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Flour a surface to work the dough.
Place the dough onto the floured work surface and shape into a loaf. Use more flour if necessary. Place into the prepared loaf pan.
Let shaped dough sit in a warm place until it has risen over the top of the pan
about 1 hour.
Meanwhile
preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bake in the preheated oven until top of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped
about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 to 20 minutes before removing from the pan and transferring to a wire rack. Let cool an additional hour before slicing; otherwise it will feel doughy.
