Homemade Wheat Bread: Crispy, Golden, and Delicious

What could be better than crispy on the outside and soft on the inside homemade bread for breakfast?! It is unlikely that anyone will be able to refuse at least one homemade wheat bread, golden brown, aromatic, with a pleasant honey note in taste, with a crispy crust and soft airy crumb. This pastry is a great breakfast option as the base of a sandwich with sausage, cheese or butter, a great addition to fresh milk for a snack, or a great replacement for bread with hot dishes or soup.

Step 1

Step 1
Preparing the ingredients. If you use candied honey, you need to melt it in a water bath or in the microwave. For this recipe, the butter also needs to be softened, so take it out of the refrigerator in advance, or melt it a little. The milk should be warm, about 30 degrees.
