This is for a breadmaker but I don't see why you couldn't do it by hand.
I make the dough in the breadmaker but bake the bread in the oven.
I've given the measurements for a large loaf. I use the 2% milk instead
of water and omit the skim milk powder. The bread is very dense. If
you find the bread doesn't rise as much as you would like you can
enhance the dough by adding 1 tbsp gluten flour.

100% Whole Wheat Bread

1 1/4 c water
2 tbsp skim milk powder
2 tbsp shortening
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp molasses
1 1/2 tsp salt
3 1/4 c whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp yeast

If using breadmaker use the whole wheat setting.
