Simple and Basic Honey Whole Wheat Bread

INGREDIENTS:
1 1/4 cups lukewarm water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup honey
3 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast

DIRECTIONS:
Knead the dough until it’s smooth and just slightly tacky, about 8 to 10 minutes. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise until doubled in volume, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Deflate the dough and shape it to fit a greased 8 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ loaf pan. Let it rise, covered, until doubled, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Bake the bread in a preheated 375°F oven for 35 minutes.

Oatmeal Cookie recipe, with honey

My take on  King Arthur Flour’s – SOFT AND CHEWY OATMEAL-RAISIN COOKIES

1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
3 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup flour
1 1/2 cups oats
1 1/2 cups raisins

Mix. Bake in oven at 375 for 10 minutes.
Pro tips –
* let butter get to room temp first
* after mixing, refrigerate some then shape into cookies
* I think the honey is the secret ingredient for chewy-ness
