Ingredients

2 1/2: to 2 3/4 cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour

1/2: teaspoon salt

1: package regular or quick* active dry yeast

1 1/2: cups very warm water (120°F to 130°F)

1/4: cup honey

1: tablespoon olive or vegetable oil

1: cup Gold Medal® whole wheat flour

1: cup Fiber One® original bran cereal

: Honey, if desired

Directions

1 In large bowl, mix 1 3/4 cups of the all-purpose flour, the salt and yeast. Add warm water, honey and oil. Beat with electric mixer on low speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Beat on medium speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Stir in whole wheat flour and cereal. Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup at a time, to make dough easy to handle.
2 Place dough on lightly floured surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Knead about 10 minutes or until smooth and springy. Spray large bowl with cooking spray. Place dough in bowl, and turn greased side up. Cover and let rise in warm place about 1 1/4 hours or until double. (Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.)
3 Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray. Gently push fist into dough to deflate. Shape into about 9-inch round loaf. Place on cookie sheet. Cover and let rise in warm place about 40 minutes or until double.
4 Heat oven to 350°F. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour, before slicing. Serve with honey.

Expert Tips

Whole wheat flour is a great way to help fill your day with fiber. Fiber works to maintain your digestive system by keeping things moving.

When making yeast bread, it's important to stick to the temperature given for the liquid in the recipe. If the liquid is too cold, it won't activate the yeast and the bread won't rise. If it's too hot, it kills the yeast, also resulting in bread that won't rise. Use an instant-read thermometer or candy thermometer to take the temperature of the liquid.

*If using quick active yeast, let dough rest 10 minutes after kneading, and omit first rising time.

I have not yet made this bread, but it looks like something I have made in the past. I'll try it soon! To answer the question about shaping into a loaf, almost any bread dough can be shaped any way you want. You just need to keep the amount of dough related to the pan size. For a 9" x 5" x 3" pan, roll out the dough into a 9" x 15" rectangle, and beginning at the 9" side, roll up tightly. Seal all edges. Place in greased bread pan, and bake about 35 to 40 minutes. If using smaller bread pans, adjust the size of the rectangle as well as the baking time. Remember, you want the dough to fill about 1/2 of the pan before baking. Test for doneness by tapping the the loaf for a hollow sound. Also, try using coffee cans, bake-proof glass bowls, make into braids, etc. Have fun experimenting!
