Ingredients

Gather the following ingredients to create your own half and half bread:

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups warm water (about 110°F)

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to bake your bread:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, honey, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the olive oil and salt to the yeast mixture, and stir gently to combine.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, mixing until well combined. Next, incorporate the whole wheat flour, and continue to stir until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the kneaded dough into a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Once risen, punch down the dough to release the air, then shape it into a loaf. Place it into a greased loaf pan.
Cover the loaf with the kitchen towel again and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the bread for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top.
Remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Your Half and Half White and Wheat Bread is now ready to slice and enjoy! Slather it with butter or use it for sandwiches — the possibilities are endless. Happy baking!
