    3. Combine the Mixtures: Add the activated yeast mixture, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Stir until the dough comes together.

    4. Simple Whole Wheat Bread

    For a healthier option, try making a soft and spongy whole wheat bread that’s just as easy to prepare. This recipe uses whole wheat flour for a denser texture while still keeping the bread light and fluffy.

    Ingredients:

    • 2 cups whole wheat flour
    • 1 packet active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
    • 1 tablespoon honey or sugar
    • 1 cup warm water
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 teaspoon salt

    Instructions:

    1. Activate the Yeast: In a bowl, mix the warm water, honey (or sugar), and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
    2. Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil, then stir to form a dough.
    3. Let It Rise: Cover the bowl and let the dough rise for 1-2 hours until it doubles in size.
    4. Shape and Bake: Punch down the dough, shape it into a loaf, and place it into a greased loaf pan. Let it rise again for 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake the bread for 30 minutes, or until it’s golden brown.
    5. Cool: Let the bread cool on a rack before slicing.
