Homemade bread. One of life’s glorious little pleasures (that while I try not to indulge in too often), I absolutely adore. And this ‘Whole Wheat Bread’ by contributing baker Craig Kominiak, is one and of the same.
It’s a timely process, but the end result is golden and rich. I think my loaves were a little light in color because of the omission of malt extract (which is absolutely impossible to find here). However, the taste is sheer perfection… not only my thoughts, but my next-door neighbor’s, as well.
Michele of Veggie Num Nums and Teresa of The Family That Bakes Together are our hostesses for the week. The entire recipe can be found on either of their blogs, along with some sweet photos, too.

Your slices look delicious.
The texture of your bread is perfect Jessica; in the end it´s all about the taste!
You got an perfect crumb on your bread – lovely! Ours was a little lighter, too. We used molasses instead of malt extract.
I am jealous of your slicing skills
Beautifully done.
beautiful bread–it is delicious.
Lucky next door neighbour! This was a terrific bread recipe.
Beautiful photography. Your bread looks just like the spelt bread we used to make, before the necessity of going gluten free. Lovely post.
Lovely photos. Your bread looks perfect; from the crumb to the slicing.
This bread was great, wasn’t it? I indulge far too often!
Your bread looks so good and the texture just perfect. I like the way you cut the slices… yummy!
