- 3 ½ - 4 cups whole wheat flour (*See our vegan white bread if you prefer that)
- 1 package instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt*
- 1 ½ cups dairy free milk (we like oat - can use any non-strongly flavored dairy free milk - can use water)
- ¼ cup maple syrup* (can sub for agave or cane sugar)
In a large bowl, whisk together 3 ½ cups flour, yeast, and salt.
Then, add in the dairy free milk and maple syrup.
Using a spatula, fold until mostly combined. Sprinkle a little more flour if needed to not be sticky and form a ball.
Once ball is formed, grease the same bowl mixed in and place the dough ball back into the bowl. *If you are oil free, then just make sure sides of bowl are floured, or use a silicone bowl to easily get it out Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let sit for 60-90 minutes in a warm, draft free place until doubled.
Once doubled in size, roll it into a loaf shape (oval) and place it into a bread pan. Let dough rise again until peaking over the loaf pan (another 60-90 minutes).
Bake at 375 degrees F for 30-35 minutes.
Remove and let cool before slicing.
*Salt and sugar are optional in this recipe, making it a 3 ingredient recipe. While we prefer both, they can be omitted and still have fluffy bread.
