Pillsbury Grands Honey Wheat Copycat Recipes

PILLSBURY GRANDS HONEY WHEAT COPYCAT RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 F.
• In the bowl of your stand mixer, add the all-purpose flour, whole wheat pastry flour and baking powder. Stir together.
• Using a cheese grater, shred the butter and add the shreds into the bowl. For this reason, I always store a few sticks of butter in the freezer.
• Using your hands, mix the butter into the flour mixture until it's crumbly and evenly combined.
• Form a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add the milk and honey. Stir the flour mixture into the milk until a dough forms. Don't over-mix.
• Sprinkle some flour on your counter and hand knead the dough. Add additional flour until the dough is no longer "sticky".
• Roll dough with a rolling pin to about an inch thick. Cut the dough with 2-inch biscuit cutter (or the top of a large glass). After the 4th biscuit you might need to re-shape and roll your dough; but this recipe will yield 6 large biscuits.
• Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Line up the six biscuits evenly spaced on the baking sheet.
• Brush the tops with milk and bake 13-15 minutes until a light golden brown.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add water, yeast, honey and salt. Let it rest for 5 minutes (or until the yeast foams).
• Add in flour 1 cup at a time, kneading it between each cup of flour added if you are making it by hand. If you are making it with a mixer (like a Bosch or Kitchen Aid), use a paddle attachment and just let it mix while you add the flour.
• Knead bread for about 5 minutes. If the dough is sticky, add only enough flour so that the dough barely pulls away from the bowl. Every time I make bread, the amount of flour I use varies - humidity and elevation will make a big difference too. I usually use between 10-11 cups.
• Preheat oven to 170 degrees; turn the oven off, and let dough rise inside the oven for 15 minutes.
• Carefully remove bowl from oven. Spray the back of your hand with cooking spray and punch down the dough. Form into a log and cut in half, forming two larger-sized loaves. Put into 2 greased loaf pans.
• Again, preheat oven (if it?s not warm anymore) to 170 degrees and let the dough in the pans rise in the oven for 20-30 minutes, or until the dough doubles in size.
• Remove dough from oven and set oven temperature to 350 degrees. Once oven is pre-heated, place the loaves back in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
• Remove from pans immediately and let cool completely on a cooling rack.
