100% Whole Wheat No Sweetener Bread Recipe

I found the recipe for this bread from here, which I loosely followed. I honestly didn't expect the bread to taste good because there is no added sweetener and it is 100% whole wheat, but it was really very yummy.

3 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour (or use whole wheat flour)
3/4 T yeast 
1/2 T salt
2 T vital wheat gluten
1 3/4 cups lukewarm water
1/4 cup olive oil

Mix warm water with yeast and wait a few minutes until the yeast proofs (this may take a bit of time since you won't be using sugar to help the yeast proof). Mix in salt and olive oil. Add vital wheat gluten. Slowly mix in flour until a dough forms (the dough should be a bit sticky). Allow it to rise for an hour and punch it down.  Press into a loaf pan. Brush with egg and sesame if desired. Allow to rise for another half hour.  Bake at 350 until load springs back when you touch it (about a half hour).
