Amish Soft Honey Whole Wheat Bread

I've been looking for a soft all whole wheat bread, and i finally found it! this is in an amish cookbook that i have, and i am writing it as it is written. I mix it with my kitchenaid. :) this is our sandwich bread that we have all the time on hand and the recipe can easily be cut into 1/3 to make just one loaf. :) 10/8/07 corrections made to make bigger loaves. i usually use recipe #185778 to have a great rise.

Steps

Mix water with yeast and sugar and let sit until foamy.

In the meanwhile , put the 3 eggs in a bowl of hot water.

Put flour , salt , and gluten in bowl.

Pour in yeast mixture and stir until combined.

Add in honey , eggs , and crisco until combined , scraping sides.

Add more wheat flour and knead until smooth.

Let set in warm place for about an hour until double in size.

Divide into 3 loaves.

Let rise again in warm place until doubled.

Bake as regular bread.

Enjoy !.
