Large BOSCHE Batch Wheat Bread (6 loaves)

THIS IS MY REGULAR BATCH I DO EVERY SINGLE WEEK
(I just freeze the extra loaves we don't eat fresh)



6 WHOLE WHEAT REGULAR LOAVES:
7 ½ c. warm water
½ c. powdered milk
½ c. wheat gluten 
*¾ c. oil 
¾ c. honey
8 c. wheat flour
2 ½ T. yeast
2 ½ T. salt
7 c. wheat flour
*(I tried omitting the oil & it was so chewy, yet collapsed in height when cooked)

6 MOSTLY WHEAT LOAVES:
(if i don't have gluten)
7 c. warm water
½ c. powdered milk
2/3 c. sugar
2/3 c. canola oil
3 c. white flour
2 T. + 1 t. yeast
2 T. +1 t. salt
12 c. wheat flour


DIRECTIONS:
1. Beat all ingredients except the last 7 cups of wheat flour
2. Knead in the last flour for 7 minutes.
3. Grease hands, counter, and 6 pans. 
4. Shape into 6 loaves and place in pans.
5. Cover with towel and allow to rise 45-60 min
(until 1 inch above pan tops)
6. Bake at 350* for 30-35 minutes or just until golden brown on top.
(Bake a couple of minutes less if using white flour in the mostly wheat bread recipe
or if omitting the oil in wheat recipe)
7. Remove from pans with a spatula and cool on racks.
8. Can serve with honey butter. (This makes great sandwhich bread)
9. Freeze extra loaves for later use.

¼ c. coconut oil or butter
¼ c. honey or powdered sugar
1/8 t. salt (omit if using butter)
(1/8 t. cinnamon if powdered sugar)

  1. Shaylee is really excited for me to learn this recipe! She walked in and saw what I was looking at on the computer and freaked out. She says she misses your bread, she loves it. So even though I have her huge expectation to live up to, I am going to give it a shot! I'll let you know how it turns out.
