Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 3/4 cups warm water
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, bread flour, and yeast.
2. In a separate bowl, mix together the honey, salt, warm water, and olive oil.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
4. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Allow it to rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

8. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
9. Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
10. Remove the bread from the pan and cool on a wire rack before slicing.
