Mother's Never Fail Bread

I hear B's been the Betty lately with the bread making. This is the recipe she used. I've tasted it and it's yummy. But I have yet to make some of my own.

This is the whole recipe, 6 loaves

5 1/4 c. hot tap water
2/3 c. oil
2/3 c. honey
2 T. salt
3 T. dry yeast
1/4 c. gluten flour
9 c. whole wheat flour
3 c. white flour

Combine all ingredients except white flour. Let raise to top of bowl. Mix again and add 3 c. white flour or until dough cleans sides of bowl. Knead 6 minutes. Put in pans. Let rise for approximately 20 minutes in warm place. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Don't over bake.

  1. Mine turned out pretty good, but not as good as Mom's. I think it might be from the altitude difference, so next time I am going to try a little less water or a little more flour and a little more yeast. We'll see if I can make a great batch of bread some day!
