Day 149: Honey Whole-Wheat Sandwich Bread (success).

Pinterest pin and website link.
 
This was the best bread recipe I've made -- my family loved it!  I hesitated to even make this bread because only half of it is done in the bread machine -- but I'm really glad I tried it despite the extra effort it takes!  I actually made one loaf by following the pin exactly (loaf below on the right), and the other loaf completely in the bread machine (loaf below on the left).  Hands down, the one that tasted the best was the one that followed the pin.
Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup warm water (between 110 – 115 degrees)
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup molasses
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
2 cups white bread flour
2-1/2 cups wheat flour
1/2 cup
ground flaxseed
2-1/4 teaspoon yeast
 
Directions:
1. Add contents per your bread machine’s manufacturer directions. (Example, wet, dry, yeast.)
2. Turn to dough setting for 1-1/2 hours.
3. Grease two 9-inch loaf pans with cooking spray or vegetable shortening.
3. Once dough cycle is completed, turn dough out on lightly floured surface with oiled hands.
5. Knead slightly and form into to two loaves.
6. Place in prepared loaf pans, cover with cotton towel, and let rise in warm area for 30 minutes or until double in size.
7. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
8. Place in preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes.
9. Cool in wire rack.
10. Let bread completely cool before slicing and eating to ensure the softest bread.
 
Verdict: SUCCESS!
