I need to try this

I think this is the same recipe my Grandma used to make too, and it was the best.

WHEAT BREAD RECIPE FROM JOY AND AUNT NANCY

1 1/2 Cup of warm water
3Table spoons of butter
3Table spoons of brown sugar (or Honey)
2 Teaspoons of salt............
in sauce pan stir until dissolved and melted
set aside to cool

1/2 Cup of warm water
1 teaspoon of sugar
2 packages of dry yeast
stir lightly and let it set until it is tripled it's size

1 egg
2 cups of whole wheat flour
2 cup of white flour
add mixture of butter, salt and milk
add yeast mixture
beat with a mixer until smooth

Add white flour (approx. 2 cups)
until it is not too sticky and easier to manage
put it on the counter with a white flour floor and kneed until it feels like a babies bottom..........that is what Mom always said????

Put it in a bowl and let it raise for 1 hour..........somewhere warm

Kneed it again with a very little flour and cut it into two parts.
grease two bread pan with butter or crisco and let it raise for another 30 minutes.

Cook at 350 for 30 minutes........butter the top when done and enjoy!!!

Let me know how it turns out......just so you know, it took me several time to make it be anywhere near Mom's!
