This recipe is super easy, and really yummy. The texture of this bread is better than other homemade breads- it doesn't fall apart when slicing. You can find soy lecithin in the organic section of the supermarket.
3 c white bread flour
2.5 c wheat flour
1/4 c. sugar
1.5 tsp salt
1.5 Tbsp instant yeast
2 quarter sized circles of soy lechithin
2.25 c hot water
Mix dry ingredients. Add soy lecithin and waters. Mix for one minutes and check consistency. If dough is too dry, add more water. Dough should be very sticky. Mix for five minutes (do not add flour to the dough after it's done mixing.) Spray counter and pans with Pam. Shape loaves and cover with a dish towel. (It makes two loaves). Let raise 25 min. Bake at 375 for 25 min.
For whole wheat bread, use the same recipe, but add 1/2 cup of applesauce, 1.5 c hot water, and 1/2 additional quarter size of lecithin. Mix for ten minutes. (I have not made this version, so let me know if it works out!)
For the whole wheat recipe, do you increase the amount of wheat flour from 2.5 c?
