Delicious Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread

• 4 cups very warm water
• 2 tablespoons active dry yeast (I use SAF instant)
• 4 teaspoons salt
• 23 cup honey
• 23 cup light olive oil or 23 cup canola oil
• 14 teaspoon vitamin C powder (it helps the bread to rise better) (optional)
• 12 cups whole wheat flour (may be a little more or less)
• 2 tablespoons lecithin granules (optional)

1. Proof yeast by mixing with 1 Tablespoon honey and 1/4 cup warm water in a glass measuring cup.
2. Set aside and allow to stand until it bubbles up - 5-10 minutes.
3. If using instant yeast, skip this step and mix yeast in with dry ingredients.
4. In a large mixing bowl blend together water, salt, honey, oil and vitamin C powder.
5. Add 3 cups of the flour and the yeast mixture.
6. Mix thoroughly.
7. Add in as much of the remaining flour as you can stir in .
8. Then turn out onto a board and knead for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
9. Try not to add too much more than the 6 cups called for in the recipe.
10. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 1-1/2 hours.
11. Punch down, divide in half and shape into two loaves.
12. Place in oiled pans, cover and let rise until doubled.
13. Bake in a 350F oven for 35 to 45 minutes until golden brown.
