Ingredients
Scale

- 1/4 cup honey (85g)
- 2 tsp active dry yeast (7g)
- 1 tsp salt (6g)
- 1 1/4 cups lukewarm water (300ml)
Instructions
- Prepare the yeast by combining lukewarm water and yeast in a small bowl. Let sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a large bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt.
- Add honey to the yeast mixture and stir well. Gradually pour this into the dry ingredients until a shaggy dough forms.

- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough gently, shape into a loaf, place in a greased pan, cover again, and let rise for another 30 minutes while preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown and cool before serving.
