I was wondering if somebody could help me because I made the recipe of Cinnamon Raisin Oatmeal Bread (I adapted the recipe to 1 loaf) using whole wheat bread on a 70% and white flour on a 30%. I also added 1 TBSP of gluten to help with the rise.

When I mix everything the dough is too dry... I try to wet my hands and knead the dough with my hands wet and also I added oil to the countertop as I was kneading (some technique I read somewhere) and the dough improved a little, but not that much. I knead it 10 minutes and the next of the recipe I made it exactly like it says in the recipe in this site...

First, what can I do to make the dough better and also how many time do I have to knead a whole wheat dough for it to be ready?

This is the adaptation I made:

• 1 cup white flour minus 1 tbsp flour + 1 tbsp vital gluten
• 2 1/2 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 208 ml water
• 2 oz milk
• 1 1/2 tbsp honey
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tsp salt
• 2/3 cup soaked raisins.

Thanks for the help.
