Homemade Wheat Bread



Ingredients:
1 cup warm water
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons oil or softened unsalted butter
2 tablespoons unsulphured blackstrap molasses
a generous sprinkling of ground ginger
a pinch of citric acid (can use ascorbic acid instead)
2 teaspoons granulated lecithin (or liquid)
4 tablespoons (¼ cup) vital wheat gluten/gluten flour (75% protein)
3 cups whole wheat flour; or 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose unbleached white flour and 1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour (Original recipe called for Prairie Gold hard white wheat, but any whole wheat bread flour would work.)
2 teaspoons instant active dry yeast

Put the ingredients in a bread machine in the order listed above. Choose wheat setting and light crust.

Let rest after baking for 15 minutes on a rack before slicing.
