100% WHOLE WHEAT BREAD

1 1/2 cups water
2 tbsp. powdered milk
2 tbsp. margarine
2 tbsp. honey
2 tbsp. molasses
1 1/2 tsp. salt
3 1/3 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp. yeast

Follow the instructions for the bread machine for adding ingredients to the baking pan. Insert the baking pan into the oven making sure it is locked in place securely. Program bread machine for a 2-pound loaf of whole wheat bread. Press start. Follow machine instructions to remove and cool bread. Store bread in a plastic zip bag.

This is a moist dense loaf of whole wheat bread and it is sturdy enough for toast and regular sandwiches. It can also be sliced very thinly, similar to Pepperidge Farm Very Thin Whole Wheat Bread, making it perfect for cucumber and other tea sandwiches.
