Mama's Wheat Bread

This recipe is from my 3rd grade class ... I remember being so proud taking the recipe home and making it with my own Mama!

1 pkg. dry yeast
2 T. plus 1 tsp. brown sugar
1/2 C. milk
1 C. water
1 tsp. salt
2 T. oil
2 C. whole wheat flour
3 T. wheat germ
1-2 C. white flour
1 egg

In large bowl, combine 1 C. white flour, 1 C. whole wheat flour, yeast, salt, and brown sugar. Mix well.
In small saucepan, heat milk, water, and oil to 120-130*. Add to flour mixture along with egg. Beat 3 minutes at medium speed.
By hand, stir in remaining whole wheat flour and enough remaining white flour to make firm dough.

Knead on floured surface 5-8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl- let rise until double, about an hour.

Punch dough down, and shape into a loaf. Place in well-greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise until 1" above the pan, about 30-40 minutes.

Bake @ 375* 34-40 minutes until golden brown.
Remove from pan and cool on wire rack.
