    Title: Luby's Whole Wheat Bread
    Categories: Breads
    Yield: 4 Loaves

    1 oz Active dry yeast
    6 tb + 1 1/2 ts distilled water;
    - warm (110ºF/45ºC)
    1 ts Granulated sugar
    1 1/4 c Distilled water
    2/3 c Cracked wheat
    5 tb Butter
    5 tb Honey
    1 1/4 ts Salt
    1 Extra-large egg; lightly
    - beaten
    2 c Whole wheat flour
    2 c All-purpose flour
    Vegetable oil

    In a small mixing bowl, mix together the yeast, warm
    water, and sugar. Set aside.

    In a medium saucepan, combine the 1-1/4 cups of water
    and the cracked wheat. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat
    and add the butter, honey, and salt. Stir until the
    butter melts. Remove from the heat and let stand until
    the mixture is completely cool.

    In a large mixing bowl, mix the egg and reserved yeast
    mixture. Stir in the cooled cracked wheat mixture. Add
    the flours. Using the dough hook of an electric mixer,
    beat on medium speed until the begins to pull away from
    the side of the bowl.

    Lightly grease the top of the dough with oil. Cover
    loosely and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes or
    until the dough has doubled in size.

    Lightly grease a 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch loaf pan. Punch the
    dough down and shape to form a loaf. Place the loaf into
    the prepared pan. Let the loaf rise in a warm place for
    one hour.

    Set the oven

    @to 350ºF/175ºC. Bake the loaf for 25 minutes or until
    the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when
    tapped.

    Makes 1, 8-1/2" x 4-1/2" loaf.

    TIP: Cracked wheat is made from whole wheat berries that
    have been cracked to a medium coarseness. You can find
    it at most health food stores and at many supermarkets.

    Store the cracked wheat in the freezer until ready to
    use.
