It’s light, fluffy, and super simple to make – all you need are 5 simple ingredients, some good whole wheat flour, and you’ll have delicious bread in no time.
This bread is fantastic on it’s own to serve as an appetizer or with a charcuterie board. It’s also fantastic in holiday recipes to make better versions of favorites: like whole wheat stuffing, whole wheat French toast, and even whole wheat croutons for a holiday salad.
The holidays are here, and I love baking fresh bread to enjoy with any meal we serve. Great for leftover holiday sandwiches, grilled cheese with brie, or weekend French toast or garlic bread. It’s a perfect loaf for breakfast or brunch, an amazing way to treat your brunch guests, friends, and family to something easy and homemade.
I am a huge fan of homemade breads, and I wanted to make a better bread with whole wheat flour. It only has a handful of ingredients (probably ones you already have in your pantry!) and this simple bread is ready in less than 2 hours.

What’s In This Vegan Sprouted Bread Recipe?
Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- Sprouted Whole Wheat Flour: I used a combination of organic sprouted whole wheat flour and all purpose to make this loaf light and fluffy. You can use all whole wheat flour, but the texture will be denser and it won’t rise as much – that’s why I found the combination of the two flours does the trick perfectly!
- Warm Water: Use bottled or tap, whichever you would drink.
- Salt: For breads I like a fine ground sea salt which mixes into the dough evenly.
- Maple Syrup: I love using a natural sweetener for this recipe, so I used maple syrup. You can use your favorite natural sweetener as a substitute: honey, agave, or organic sugar.
- Instant Yeast: I love baking with this instant yeast, I absolutely love it! Instant yeast is great for both overnight breads and this easy quick whole wheat bread recipe too!
A Great Vegan Holiday or Thanksgiving Salad Recipe
This sprouted wheat bread recipe is a fantastic recipe for the holidays – add it to your Christmas, Thanksgiving, or Hanukah table and enjoy. This will be one crowd pleaser appetizer or side dish everyone can feel good about eating.
This simple bread has minimal ingredients, with no added preservatives or chemicals. Only clean whole ingredients you can feel good about serving.
How Do I Bake Sprouted Whole Wheat Bread?
- In a large mixing bowl, add the warm water, salt, sugar and yeast. Allow to sit for 5 minutes until yeast starts to bubble. With a wooden spoon, mix in the flour one cup at a time starting with the whole wheat flour.
- Knead by hand (or in a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment) for 5 minutes or until dough is soft and springy. Cover the dough with a tea towel, and allow dough to rest for 1-2 hours in a warm location. If its cold, I like to preheat my oven for one minute, turn it off, and let the dough rise in the warm oven.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Once dough has risen and doubled in size, punch it down and form into loaves. Divide dough evenly and place them in greased loaf pans for 10-15 minutes while oven heats.
- Once oven reaches temperature, place loaf pans onto the center rack in the oven and bake bread for 30 to 40 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes before slicing.

I skipped the salt and used raw sugar since I don’t eat animal products. Came out good. I will let the dough rise again after putting it in the loaf pans. Making second batch right now. Glad to find a recipe I can use up some sprouted wheat flour I got at the discount food store before it went out of date.
This is an economical yet delicious way to enjoy fresh bread. Yum
