Ingredients

1 C warm Water
1 tsp dry active Yeast
4 tsp Honey
2 C Whole wheat flour
1/2 C All purpose flour
1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions

Place the yeast and honey in a large mixing bowl and pour the heated water over the mixture, stirring until well blended. Let the mixture stand for about 5 - 7 minutes until foamy.

Add the whole wheat flour, all purpose flour and salt and stir with a fork until a coarse dough forms. Continue to mix by hand until a dough ball forms and all the flour is well blended. Cover the bowl and place it in a sink with about 4 inches of hot water in the bottom. The heat from the warm water will help the dough rise. The dough will double in size in about 30 – 40 minutes.

Punch it a few times with your fingers and let it rise another 30 minutes. Cover the dough that you are not going to use immediately in plastic wrap and chill.
