Honey Whole Wheat

3C Whole Wheat Flour
1/3C honey
1/4C shortening
1T salt
4 1/2 tsp. dry yeast
2 1/4C very warm water
3-4 cups all purpose or bread flour

Mix the Wheat, honey, shortening, salt and yeast. Add water. Beat low 1 minute, beat medium 1 minute - scrape sides frequently. Stir in white flour, one cup at a time, only until easy to handle - still sticky. Place on floured surface and kneed for 10 minutes. Let rise in large greased bowl, covered, for about an hour (doubled in size). Grease 2 loaf pans and divide dough into two portions. Flatten each into about 18x9 rectangle and tightly roll up. Fold ends under and place seam side down in pan. Cover and let raise about 30 mins or until dough is at least an inch over the edge of pan.
Bake on bottom rack at 375 for about 40-45 minutes. When done, turn out imediately onto cooling racks.

Tips:
I have one of those large mixers (industrial style) LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Cuts out a lot of the work for you when you bake.
I live in Wyoming and its either my oven or the elevation but my bread cooks in about 25-30 minutes. I also like to use a non stick spray just before kneading... spray directly onto the counter top and your hands if you'd like - makes kneading easier.
