WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
I used to make bread with my grandad when I was a little kid. The smell of freshly baked bread still reminds me of him to this day. When my parents moved into their new lake home, my brother and I pitched in and bought them a bread maker as a house warming gift.
Over these last few months we have baked two loafs of bread a week and nothing compares to the taste of bread fresh out of the bread maker. Here is the whole wheat recipe we have been making and this is the bread machine we’ve been using: the Breville custom loaf bread maker.
