Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 9x5 loaf pan thoroughly.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, bread flour, salt, and baking soda. Whisk until blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together buttermilk and honey until mixed. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix gently.
  4. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
  5. Once baked, let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  6. Wrap the cooled loaf in foil and freeze for 1 to 1.5 hours.
  7. Slice the loaf as thinly as possible, about 1/4 inch thick.
  8. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Spread sliced pieces on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, then flip and bake for another 15 minutes.
