remaining water & honey, oil,sugar, salt, whole wheat flour, wheat

remaining bread flour to form a soft dough (the dough will be
sticky)

loaf pans coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise until nearly
doubled. (about 30 min)
Bake at 350 for 30-45 min or golden brown.
Remove from pans to wire rack to cool.
This recipe was inspired by a passage in the bible Ezekiel 4-9.
