Rustic Whole Wheat Bread

Stir all-purpose flour whole wheat flour brown sugar instant yeast and salt together in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment. Whisk water and oil together in a cup; pour into flour mixture. Mix on low speed until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl into a ball.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead just until dough is smooth about 1 minute. Divide and shape dough into 3 balls for small loaves or 2 balls for larger loaves. Dust loaves with flour and place onto a baking sheet; cover with a towel and let rise until doubled in size about 25 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Slash an \X\ about 1/4-inch deep in tops of loaves with a sharp knife.

Bake in the preheated oven until loaves are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped about 25 minutes. Remove from oven to cool completely on a wire rack.
