1‑Hour Fresh‑Milled Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread
To make 1 Loaf:
1 1/2 cup lukewarm water (350 g)
3 Tbs honey (56 g)
3 Tbs oil (36 g)
1 1⁄2 tsp yeast (active dry or instant) (5 g)
4 1⁄2 cups fresh milled flour (500 g) — add more if dough is too
sticky
1 1⁄2 tsp vital wheat gluten (4 g) (optional)
1 1⁄2 tsp dough enhancer/conditioner (5 g) (optional)
1 1⁄2 teaspoon salt (9 g)
To Make 2 Loaves:
3 cups lukewarm water (700 g)
6 Tbs honey (112 g)
6 Tbs oil (72 g)
3 tsp yeast (active dry or instant) (10 g)
9 cups fresh milled flour (1000 g) — add more if dough is too sticky
3 tsp vital wheat gluten (8 g) (optional)
3 tsp dough enhancer/conditioner (10 g) (optional)
3 tsp salt (18 g)
Instructions for one loaf:
Start by milling your wheat berries. I mill 2 2/3 c of berries (per loaf) which is 500 grams. Once milled, this still weighs 500 g, and is about 4 ½ c of fresh milled flour. (You may want to mill just a bit more in case your dough is too wet and you need to add a little extra flour as it begins to knead). Then, add ingredients in order listed to mixer. Knead on speed 2 (medium low) for 8 minutes. Check on dough 1-2 minutes after starting mixer and add more flour if dough is too wet. If you add too much flour, your bread could become too dense, but you want just enough that you can handle the dough to shape into a loaf. Oiling your hands can help. After kneading 8 minutes (I don’t worry about windowpane for this one-hour loaf, but you can!), immediately press out the dough and roll into a loaf. Pinch ends and seams together and place seam side down into a well-oiled loaf pan (mine are 8.5x4.5-inch cast iron). Heat oven for 1 ½-2 minutes, then turn oven OFF! Put loaf into warm oven to rise for 20 minutes. This will help it to rise faster. Take loaf out of oven, and preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 30 minutes or until desired color. Brush with melted butter if desired and cover with tea towel to cool. Let cool completely for best slicing, crumb, texture—but I recommend have a warm piece of this wholesome bread with some butter and preserves! It may just be the best thing you’ve ever eaten! In just an hour, your homemade fresh-milled flour bread is ready to enjoy!!!
