Our organic whole wheat bread kit allows you to make amazingly easy, excellent bread at home without fancy equipment or any special bread-making skills. You\u2019ll get all the smells, two flavorful, nicely-textured loaves, and the sweet reward of having made it yourself. For those of you with kids, this is also a great project to undertake with them.<\/p>\n<p>We chose this loaf for our first-ever bread making kit because it\u2019s one of Leslie\u2019s favorites to make at home. \u201cTo me, this pan loaf is the perfect comfort food,\u201d Leslie says. \u201cIt smells so good while it\u2019s baking, and the organic whole wheat flour we include gives the bread an excellent texture and flavor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_0853.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3920\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_0853.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_0853.jpg 750w, https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_0853-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_0853-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our kit includes everything you need but a standard bread loaf pan, oil for brushing the pan, and honey (or agave or maple syrup). Our recipe has two options: A no-knead version, and a stand-mixer version. The no-knead method takes a little longer (an extra 90 minutes) but turns out a loaf equally as good as the one from the stand mixer. If you don\u2019t have a mixer, this is the path for you\u2014or if you just want to save yourself some extra cleanup.<\/p>\n<p>From start to finish, you\u2019ll need to allow for three hours of combined proofing time (four and a half for the no-knead method) and about 45 minutes of baking time. The active time\u2014mixing the dough and shaping the loaf\u2014won\u2019t account for more than 20 minutes of your time.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re tired of being confined to your home and want to try something new, this kit gives you the chance to turn out professional loaves without the stress. You\u2019ll enjoy the rewards, one slice at a time, for days.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/cider_bread_sliced_horiz.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3921\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/cider_bread_sliced_horiz.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/cider_bread_sliced_horiz.jpg 750w, https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/cider_bread_sliced_horiz-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/cider_bread_sliced_horiz-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our organic whole wheat bread kit makes two excellent homemade pan loaves, one for now, and one to share with a lucky neighbor.\u00a0 Do you love homemade bread but have always been too intimidated to try baking it yourself?
