Surprisingly Good Wheat Bread

Found this recipe on a ZOOM box. I bought Zoom a long time ago (sort of like creamed wheat, but gross) and needed to get rid of it. It's just cracked wheat, but you find it in the cereal isle. Took it out of the cupboard and saw a honey wheat bread recipe on the side. Its really good.

2 TBS oil
2 TBS honey
1 1/4 cups warm water
2 tsp active dry yeast
3/4 c zoom (or cracked wheat)
1/2 c whole wheat flour
1 tsp salt
2-3 cups flour

Blend oil, honey, water in mixer. Sprinkle yeast, let raise 3 mins. Stir in zoom, wheat flour, and salt. Mix. Stir in 1 1/4 c flour and mix for 1 minute. Add enough remaining flour to make an easy to handle dough. Cover with cloth, let raise till double. Punch down. Shape into loaf. Let raise again till double. Bake 375 for 35-45 mins.
