Perfect Whole Wheat Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 3/4 cups water
    2 teaspoons salt
    2 tablespoons honey
    1 tablespoon brown sugar, blend
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons dry milk
    4 cups whole wheat bread flour
    1/4 cup wheat bran
    2 tablespoons vital wheat gluten
    2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
Preparation
    Measure ingredients and follow your bread Machine instructions.
    I use Becel intead of butter.
    Select Dough cycle.
    When your machine is first kneading check to make sure you have enough water.
    Remove from machine and shape into 2 loaves.
    Bake in a preheated 400*oven for 10 minutes.
    Lower heat to 350* and bake another 20 minutes.
    After baking remove from pan and let cool on wire rack.
    I keep one out and freeze the other one.
    Tip:
    Innisfree gave this wonderful suggestion for rising bread and it WORKS!
    In microwave, heat up 1 cup of water to boiling and let it boil for about a minute. Carefully remove cup of boiling water and place bowl of dough in the microwave. No need to cover dough as the microwave stays moist like a proofing box.
    I leave the cup of water in the microwave and place my loaves in the microwave and in no time you have it ready for the oven.
    Good luck!
