My first time baking bread


Made 100% whole wheat bread. Came out really delicious imo. My wife liked it too. It's a little denser than I would have liked but I figured substituting some of the whole wheat flour for baking flour would do fine.

Im not a baker. I cook. Where things dont have to be as precise. So I was nervous.

I'm really pumped about it.

    Looks pretty dense but for your first bread from a non baker it’s pretty good. Bread is tricky

    Awesome! Whole wheat generally requires more hydration, so if you’re going all whole wheat in the future, more water will help make it less dense.

    Get a digital scale. Study up on hydration. The precision is what makes baking such a fun hobby. IMO

    it’s a beautiful loaf, and not overly dense for 100% whole wheat imo. I do 2/3-3/4 white flour to 1/4-1/3 whole wheat flour. a little wheat gluten can help lighten a whole grain loaf too.

    Great job! Don’t you love the magic of bread from the base ingredients to the finished product – pure magic.

    Baking bread can be tricky. Baking whole wheat bread is even trickier. Really nice job!

    Looks good, one you delve into adding herbs and cheeses, it blows your world into the delicious world of buttered sourdough herb bread goodness.

    ngl this looks perfect, like the kind you find in tv commercials or photoshopped in an ad.

    I actually prefer denser bread, some are so fluffy that feels like I’m eating air. I love this one.

    Now. Put some butter on it and spread it on there 😺

    Very nice crumb for 100% whole wheat.
    Bread alchemy is a beautiful thing
