I was pleasantly surprised by this recipe. So many times, bread with all wheat flour is really dense and heavy. This had a lovely texture and flavor. It was a little dense, so I might try adding some gluten next time, but overall a very nice 100% whole wheat bread. -
The dough was very soupy. -
I've tried all the 100% whole wheat milk-free bread recipes on this site. The others were better than this one in texture. -
I am a bit of a health freak and this bread is awesome. Low in fat, whole grain and easy to make! Tastes very good if you like HEAVY bread, which is my favorite. Great job! -
This is a very good bread!Very nice texture and taste, with a chewy crust. I did this by hand. I did have to bake it for about 45 minutes and it was fine. Thanks!
