Samantha's Whole Wheat Bread

2 T yeast
1/4 c dry milk
2/3 c applesauce
5 c warm water
2/3 c honey
11 - 13 c whole wheat flour
1 T salt

Let yeast activate in 1 c of warm water.  In a mixer or large bowl combine applesauce, honey, salt, dry milk and the 4 remaining c of warm water.  When ready add the activated yeast; mix well.  Add 7 c flour; mix well.  Let it sponge for 10 minutes.  Add the remaining flour; mix well.  The dough should form a ball and clean the sides of the bowl.  Let rise for 40 minutes.  Knead for 7 - 10 minutes.  Form dough in to five loaves and place into greased loaf pans.  Let dough rise until it is just above the top of the pans, about 30 minutes.  Bake at 350 F for 30 minutes until golden brown.
