How to make whole wheat bread:

Soften yeast in 2 cups warm water. Add sugar, salt and white flour. Beat with bread hooks on highest speed until smooth. Let rise in microwave oven for 15 minutes on Low power (level 1).

Combine hot water, brown sugar and shortening. Cool to lukewarm. Add to yeast/flour mixture. Add whole wheat flour. Mix with bread hooks on highest speed until shiny (about 6 minutes). Place in greased bowl. Grease top. Let rise in microwave 10 minutes on level 1.

Punch down and cut in half. Shape each half in a ball. Let rest 10 minutes. Roll each ball to a 10 x 14-inch rectangle. Break bubbles in surface. Roll toward you, sealing ends after each roll, until you have a loaf shape. Place loaves in greased glass loaf pans. Raise in microwave on level 1 about 8 minutes. Bake at 375° for 50 minutes.
