To fit in the bread machine, we adjusted the amounts of ingredients to produce only one loaf. This version retails the same sweet taste and tender texture as the original loaf, and there's no need to knead the dough by hand.—Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Greendale, Wisconsin

Received my new bread machine at 2:30 PM and by 5:00PM had made my very first loaf of bread machine bread. I used this recipe because the recipes that came with the machine all called for powdered milk. My first try was perfect. This is a delicious "goof proof" recipe.

This is a great wheat bread recipe. Most loaves turn out dense and chewy; this loaf is light and fluffy. I have a trick that I now use every time for my bread machine...I never follow the manufacturer's suggested ingredient addition list. From now on, I will ALWAYS add the yeast to the liquid and let it foam for 10 minutes or so, then add the rest of the ingredients. It creates a light, fluffy loaf every time. This recipe is EXACTLY the type of wheat bread that we love!

Best whole wheat bread I've had in a long time. Great texture and flavor.

This recipe will now become our staple wheat bread recipe unless something better comes along. I have tried a couple different recipes, but there was something always off until I tried this one. The flavor, texture, and density was perfect. Next time I make it, I may try using just the dough option on the break machine and then move it over to a loaf pan and bake after rising for an additional hour to get a more traditional loaf shape and size.
