INGREDIENTS

• 2 packages active dry yeast
• 1 1/4 cups warm (105° to 115° F) water
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1 cup warm (105° to 115° F) milk
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons salad oil
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 4 to 4 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granola cereal

DIRECTIONS

• Sprinkle yeast over 1/2 cup of the water in large bowl of electric mixer. Add 1 teaspoon of the honey. Let stand until soft (about 5 minutes). Stir in remaining 3/4 cup water, milk, remaining honey, salt, and oil.
• Add whole wheat flour and 2 1/2 cups of the unbleached flour. Mix to blend; then beat at medium speed until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes). Stir in granola, then about 1 cup of the unbleached flour to make a soft dough.
• Turn dough out onto a floured board or pastry cloth. Knead until springy and small bubbles form just under surface (10 to 12 minutes), adding enough of remaining flour to prevent dough from being sticky. Turn dough in a greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel; let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk (about 1 hour). Punch dough down. and divide into two equal portions. Shape into loaves. Place loaves in greased 4 1/2- by 8 1/2-inch pans. Let rise until almost doubled in bulk (40 to 45 minutes).
• Preheat oven to 350° F. Bake until loaves are well browned and sound hollow when tapped (40 to 45 minutes). Remove loaves from pans and let cool on wire racks.
