Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, and salt.
  2. Add the active dry yeast, honey, warm water, and olive oil. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  5. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 5 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  6. Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
