Ingredients:

1 tsp activated yeast ≈ 5 grams
2 tsp sugar ≈ 10 grams
1 tsp salt ≈ 5 grams
1 ½ cups of water (110°F) ≈ 355 milliliters
3 cups of whole wheat flour (approximate values)
Whole wheat flour: Approximately 360-375 grams

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the activated yeast, sugar, salt, and water. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes to activate the yeast.
Add 3 cups of whole wheat flour to the bowl. Mix until all the flour is incorporated and no dry patches remain.
Cover the bowl with a cloth and let the dough rest for 1 hour, allowing it to rise.
Fold in all sides of the dough to release any excess air and enhance the structure.
Proof the dough for an additional 1-2 hours, allowing it to rise and develop flavor.
Preheat the Dutch oven to 450°F (230°C).
Carefully transfer the dough into the preheated Dutch oven, ensuring it is evenly shaped.
Cover the Dutch oven with the lid and bake the bread for 35 minutes.
Remove the lid and continue baking for an additional 3 to 5 minutes to achieve a golden crust.
Once baked, remove the bread from the Dutch oven and let it cool before slicing.

After you put it on the parchment paper, you can let it rise again before putting it in the Dutch oven. You get fluffier, less dense bread that way.

Hi,
Thanks for this simple recipe. You are working with nearly 100% hydrated dough. It is usually very srticky with so much water. Yours does not appear very sticky. What is your secret? How strong is your flour? It says "all purpose", but it appears to be of much better grade. Right?
Thanks again.

Thank you so much for this video! Going to try to make this bread tonight. Your instructions are very clear and concise. Really appreciate that!

Whole Wheat is so much easier to manage. The H20 absorption is more greater than my regular flour recipes. I use Red Mill quite a bit, but I usually find it less aggravating using Whole Wheat.

I’m just making one .I will let you know soon .👍

I just made bread for the first time using this recipe and it turned out great! Its been quite cold here so I used a heater for the first proof and then left the dough overnight in a small room for the second proof. Rose quite nicely and baked well in the oven. Thanks for sharing it :)

I just made this and it’s delicious. I was skeptical at first because mine didn’t raise as much, but it’s so good!

[bobdickson]

I’m amazed that you can achieve a crumb texture like this with all-purpose flour. Very impressed!

This is my go to recipe video for WW bread. Bread from the supermarket has a lot of bad stuff in it and having control over how it’s made is great. Thank you.

Thanks this worked for me bread tastes really good

Im trying this recipe. Or one similar. The spatula trick to fold the dough shaped the ball nicely. My problem is my whole wheat bread is always so dense. I use 1 cup ww flour to 2.25 cups unbleached white and it doesnt help. I am experimenting with letting it rise 2-3 times and see if that helps aerate the loaf. Fingers crossed. New sub!

Made bread for the first time following your recipe. Came out looking great. Didn't like the taste that much - but I deduced it was my Asian palette's natural preference for a bit more salt than was recommended! Thanks for this recipe!

I'm suffering with your spatula 😅
Love the recipe. I really want to make bread at home and I am a little scared but I will give this a try 😊
