Start with a large bowl. If you have a KitchenAid, that works great. If you do not, you can use a large bowl and mixer until it gets too stiff for a mixer. You will then need to mix by had with a large sturdy spoon.
In the bowl add:
1 cup olive oil
2 large eggs
2 tbs salt
1 1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup vital wheat gluten
1 1/2 cup very hot water (I put it in the microwave for a minute 30 seconds)
mix well
add while mixing but after allowing it to mix for at least a couple minutes
2 tbs yeast
then add
5 cups warm water
10 cups whole wheat flour
continue mixing
now add and if you are using a mixer, by now you will have to change to hand mixing with a stout spoon
either:
2-3 cups chopped dried fruit
or
2 cups smashed ripe bananas
or
2 cups cooked brown rice
or
2 cups rolled oats
mix well. you may want to kneed the bread if you do not have a stout bread mixer
pour into 4-5 bread pans that have been sprayed with oil or well greased,
cover with a towel and allow to rise for 30 minutes
place in an oven, preheated to 350 for 45 minutes.
Allow to cool, cut, eat and enjoy. Better is my favorite thing to add.
