Introduction

This is such a fast, simple recipe for rye bread. The bread is airy and the flavor is light. I adapted a recipe from allrecipes.com and I make this bread at least once a week.

Ingredients

    2 tsp active dry yeast
    3 Tbsp granulated sugar
    2 cups warm water (about 110 degrees F)
    2 cups rye flour
    1 tsp salt
    3 cups whole wheat flour
    1 tsp cornmeal
    4 tsp wheat gluten
    1 Tbsp caraway seeds (optional - I don't include this)
    1 Tbsp vegetable oil

Directions

Combine the water (I use 1 cup of boiling water and one at room temperature), sugar, and yeast and let stand 10 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients (except oil) and mix until a soft dough forms. Coat with oil, cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour. Punch down dough and form 2 loaves. Dust with Rye flour and make three diagonal slices on the top of the loaves. Let rise 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes.

Makes 2 loaves with 10 slices each.

    Very Good
    This has wonderful flavor. I used sorghum syrup instead of sugar as that was what my grandmother used. It didn't rise as much as I would have liked even though I left it for several hours . - 9/9/13

    What is wheat gluten, what is the purpose of/for it in the recipe? I don't have any of that and do not want to buy it if the bread can be made without it. I have a VERY SMALL kitchen and not a lot of storage space. - 11/11/09
