List of Ingredients




2 cups of "spoon size" shredded wheat biscuits
¼ cup sugar
3 teaspoons salt
¼ cup shortening
1 cup milk
1¼ cups water
1 package dry yeast
¼ cup lukewarm water
2 cups sifted whole wheat flour
2½ cups sifted white flour

Recipe



In a large mixing bowl, mix the shredded wheat biscuits, sugar, salt and shortening. Heat to boiling the milk and water. Then, add to the first mixture. Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm water and stir into the milk mixture when it feels lukewarm, too. In another large bowl, sift together the whole wheat and white flour. Add one cup at a time to the first mixture, heating well after each addition. Turn out to rest for 10 minutes on a floured board. Knead dough, by hand, until smooth and elastic! Let rise in a greased bowl, covered, until doubled. Punch down; turn it over and let it rise until doubled in bulk, again. Punch down again. Knead a couple minutes and divide in half. Place into two greased loaf pans and let rise again until doubled. Bake at 350º for 1 hour. Cool.
