Ingredients

Servings

• 3 cup Whole wheat flour
• 2 cup Bread flour
• 1 cup Rye flour
• 1 cup Wheat berries
• 1.5 cup Water
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Active dry yeast

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, bread flour, rye flour, and wheat berries.
2. In a separate bowl, dissolve the honey in warm water. Sprinkle the yeast over the water and let it sit for 5 minutes.
3. Add the yeast mixture and salt to the flour mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
4. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
6. Punch down the dough and shape it into a round loaf. Place the loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
7. Cover the loaf with a kitchen towel and let it rise for another 1 hour.
8. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake the bread for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped on the bottom.
9. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
