Ingredients

    2 3/4 cups hand hot water
    1/3 cup applesauce
    1/4 cup sugar
    1 tablespoon salt
    No more than 7 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
    2 tablespoons dry active yeast

Directions

Put warm water, sugar and yeast into mixing bowl and then leave for about 10 minutes until froth forms on top of the water.
Add applesauce and 2 cups of flour, then turn mixer on to incorporate.
Add another 4 cups of flour and mix well.
Add further flour one half cup at a time until the dough starts coming away from the sides of the bowl. The dough will still be tacky. Don;t use more than 7 1/2 cups flour total.
Cover bowl and leave for about an hour until the dough has doubled in size.
Mix again briefly to knock down the dough, then turn out onto a floured surface.
Half the dough then shape into oblongs, ready to place into a lightly oiled loaf tin.
Leave loaves to rise again for about an hour, then cook for approx. 30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
I usually leave the loaves int he tins for about 20 minutes when they come out of the oven, then they slip out easily.
Enjoy! =)

    I am going to give this a shot...still looking for a great bread recipe and I like the idea of using applesauce...I make and can my own and I add cinnamon instead of any sugar so it might make the bread kind of interesting. - 3/24/11
