Yield: 4 Loaves
2 packages Yeast dry
4 cups water warm
1/2 cup butter; softened
1/4 cup molasses
1/2 cup honey
2 tsp salt
6 cups flour whole wheat
4 cups flour
Dissolve yeast in the warm water. Combine butter molasses, honey and salt; mix well. Add yeast mixture. Gradually add flour. Turn onto a floured board and knead until smooth (this will take a fair amount of shoulder; the dough is fairly heavy). Place in a large greased bowl then turn to grease the top. Cover with a clean tea towel and let rise until doubled about two hours. Punch dough down and let it rest a few minutes. Divide into quarters and shape into loaves. Place in greased bread pans and let rise about one hour.
Bake at 375 F. for 35 to 40 minutes.
