7 Ingredients. 5 Min Prep + No Hassle Rise and Bake Time. Whole WheatBread Recipe

                              
    
One of my favorite, cheap & easy, go-to whole wheat recipes.  $0.65/Loaf 

1 1/2 cup water (doesn't count as an ingredient on bread labels)
1/4 c local honey - $0.50
1/4 canola oil - $0.10
1 tbsp yeast - $0.05
1 tbsp vinegar $0.03
5 cups whole wheat flour $0.40
1/4 c vital wheat gluten $0.21
2 1/2 tsp salt $0.01
Total - $1.30/2 loaves

Mix wet ingredients.  Add dry ingredients.  Mix for 4 minutes using kitchen mixer. Shape into a ball.  Cover and let rise for 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 450*.  Gently divide dough into two loaves. Place on large cookie sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.

Bake for 30 minutes.  Top with butter.  

Note: Baking at 450*  with a pan of hot water on the bottom rack of the oven will give a chewy, artisan crust.
