20 40 60

Ingredients

  • 3 cups whole wheat flour
  • 5 to 5-1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 small onion, minced
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 cups warm water (120° to 130°)
  • Milk
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour, 1 cup all-purpose flour, yeast, sugar, salt, herbs, onion, oil and water. Beat with an electric mixer on low until moistened, then beat for 3 minutes at medium. By hand, stir in enough of the remaining flour to form a stiff dough. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and allow to rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down. Shape into two balls and place in two greased 2-qt. casseroles. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 45 minutes. Brush tops with milk and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes. Remove from casseroles to cool on wire rack. Yield: 2 loaves (40 slices).

This is an excellent bread!!! Has a nice texture and smells wonderful while baking. Gave a loaf to a friend of mine who is a physicians assistant and she still talks about it.
