PHYLLIS' BREAD

YIELD: 2 9x5 INCH LOAVES

1 1/2 cups warm water
2 tablespoons dry yeast
3 tablespoons unrefined corn germ oil
4 tablespoons raw honey or unsulfured molasses
5 1/2 to 6 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt

Dissolve the yeast in the warm water.
Add the oil and honey.
Mix the flour and salt. Add the liquids. Mix well with hands, adding a 
little more flour if needed.
Cover and let rise until double (about 1 1/2 hours). Knead down.
Shape the dough into 2 loaves. Place in oiled loaf pans. Allow to rise 
again until nearly doubled.
Bake 10 minutes at 400F. Reduce the heat to 350F and bake 20 minutes 
more. Cool on rack.

VARIATION:
Substitute 1 cup cracked wheat for 1 cup flour.

This is a simple, delicious bread. It works well for beginners or old hands.
