, you can make freshly baked, Whole Wheat Artisan Bread right in the comfort of your own home! Your friends and family will wonder which bakery you bought it from!

My whole family LOVES homemade whole wheat bread! Who doesn't? It's hearty, fresh and smells amazing! I especially love making Homemade Whole Wheat Bagels and now that I'm a sourdough mom, my Easy Vegan Sourdough Loaf is often on hand. But I know a lot of us don't have tons of time to spend making bread every week. That's why I'm obsessed with this 4 ingredient Whole Wheat Artisan Bread that takes one-bowl and only 10 minutes of hands-on-time to prepare!

Baking bread used to intimidate me so much, but it honestly couldn't be easier. To make this whole wheat artisan bread, all you'll need are the following 4 ingredients:

Healthy Banana Bread (whole Wheat)

You don't need much to make this artisan bread. I personally don't even have everything that you're technically supposed to use to make artisan bread! To make the dough you'll need the following:

Once you've made the dough, you'll need to cover it with some plastic wrap. Then to bake the dough you'll need a dutch oven.

Good news! If you don't have a dutch oven like me, you can also use an oven-safe pot with a lid (one that can withstand 475°F / 250°C degrees) or even two taller round cake pans stacked on each other.

Step 3: Use a wooden spoon to stir the mixture until a dough forms. I usually switch to using my hands to make sure all of the flour has been incorporated into the dough.

Step 5: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for at least 12 hours, even up to 18 hours, until it has risen.

Towards the end of the rising time, preheat your oven to 475°F / 250°C and place a dutch oven with the lid on inside the oven to preheat as well. Once the oven is hot, carefully remove the dutch oven and remove the lid.

Step 6: Using floured hands, remove the risen dough from the bowl and shape it into a rough ball. Place it on a piece of parchment paper and carefully set it inside of the hot dutch oven. Cover the pot and place it in the oven.

Step 7: Bake the bread covered for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and let the bread bake another 15 minutes or until crusty and golden on top.

Step 8: After removing the bread from the oven, carefully remove it from the pot and allow it to cool on a wire rack. Slice and Enjoy!

No Knead Whole Wheat Bread

Artisan bread is a loaf of bread that has a crusty exterior and a short shelf life. It also typically requires a longer fermentation/rising time compared to other breads that are baked in a loaf pan.

Artisan bread tastes the best the day you bake it. However, if you have any leftovers, you can store them in a sealed container or bag in the fridge for a couple days or you can slice the loaf, wrap it and freeze it for later use.

If you don't have a dutch oven you can also use two cake pans carefully stacked on each other. Or if you have an oven-safe saucepan or stock-pot with a lid, that works too!

I love to slice and freeze this homemade artisan bread. Then whenever I want to enjoy a slice, I simply place a slice of frozen bread straight into my toaster and toast it until my desired doneness.

This whole wheat artisan bread is heartier and denser than your traditional sandwich loaf. For that reason, we love to pair a slice or two with soup. It also makes for great open face toasts or as a base for bruschetta. I usually don't use this bread for sandwiches as using two slices may overpower your sandwich fillings and make the sandwich hard to eat.

The Master Recipe: Whole Grain Artisan Bread

If you are using instant yeast, you can skip the proofing step and just mix all of the ingredients together in your mixer bowl. However, I almost always proof the yeast because it is a good way to tell if your yeast is active (which is necessary for bread to rise). Most yeast that is called active dry yeast (not instant or rapid-rise) needs to be proofed.

To proof yeast, you mix the yeast with the warm water, milk and honey. Let the mixture rest for 5 to 10 minutes. It should become somewhat foamy or bubbly, which means that your yeast are alive and active. If nothing happens after 10 minutes, your yeast may be dead and you should try again with new yeast.

When you are new to making bread, it can be hard to know how much flour to add. The amount listed in the recipe is a guide, and depending on your particular ingredients and baking conditions, you may need to add a little more flour.

Start by adding 3 cups of flour when making this recipe. You may need to add up to 1/2 cup more flour if the dough is very sticky. The dough has enough flour when it is only slightly sticky to the touch. If a lot of dough sticks to your finger when you press it, add more flour, a tablespoon or two at a time, until the dough is only slightly sticky. Three cups to 3 1/4 cups of whole wheat flour is usually the perfect amount when I make this bread.

Knead the dough using your mixer’s dough hook for about 8 minutes. If you do not have a stand mixer, you can knead by hand, but you may need extra flour to keep the dough from sticking.

Stop the mixer every few minutes, as needed, and use a spatula to scrape the dough away from the sides of the bowl. After kneading, the dough will be a little sticky and very soft. It won’t hold its shape tightly in a ball, but should hold together when you transfer it to an oiled bowl using your hands or a spatula.

This bread dough needs to rise twice, first in an oiled bowl and second in the bread pan. The first rise takes about an hour, until the dough doubles in size. The second rise is shorter, about 20 to 30 minutes. For the second rise, the dough is ready to go into the oven when the top is just above the top of the
