Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls or Loaf Bread
1 1/2 cups hot water
1 cup cold milk (The resulting temperature will be lukewarm, so as not to kill the yeast)
3 eggs
1/3 cup oil
1/3 cup honey
4 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
6-7 1/4 cups whole-wheat flour
1 Tablespoon salt
Combine water, milk, oil, honey and eggs in a mixing bowl. Add yeast and about 5 cups of the flour. Mix on medium speed until well blended. Add the salt. Continue to mix adding the flour 1/2 cup at a time. Make sure all the flour gets mixed in. When the dough pulls away from the side of the bowl enough flour has been added. Turn the speed to high and allow to knead 10-12 minutes, or until the dough forms a smooth ball. Let rise until double.
After rising, form into 3 loaves or 36 dinner rolls. Place loaves in greased loaf pan. And the dinner rolls on parchment lined cooking sheets. Let rise until at least double in size. Paint with a scrambled egg for a shiny look. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
This is our family’s “famous” yeast bread recipe. They are really delicious. =)

I'm delighted that you're sharing your "famous" recipe with us! I know we have enjoyed it when we had the opportunity of sharing a meal at your home. Very yummy! What kind of whole wheat do you use? Is it home ground?
Yes, it is. They (we) have mills and grind out wheat.
