Superb Rye Bread

By Addie

This is a good basic bread machine recipe for rye bread. I don't remember where I got it, but it's one I make all the time.

MY NOTES" I use the dough cycle and bake this bread in my Hearth Bread Pan at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. I brushed the top with egg wash. I did use caraway seeds. Very very nice rye bread!

Ingredients

• 1 cup rye flour
• 2 3/4 cups bread flour
• 1/3 cup brown sugar (I use the granulated type)
• 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt (I use kosher salt)
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 1/2 cups warm water
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast

Preparation

Step 1

Bring all ingredients to room temperature and add to bread machine baking pan, in order suggested by manufacturer. Select DOUGH setting. When cycle is done, remove dough from machine and form into desired shape on parchment paper or place on greased baking sheet.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes or until done.
