Ingredients
- 1.25 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2.25 cups Bread flour
- 1.25 cups Rye flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Caraway seeds (optional)
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Dry milk powder
- 2 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Instructions
Add the water, vegetable oil, and honey to the bread machine pan.
Place the bread flour and rye flour on top of the liquid ingredients, ensuring they completely cover the water.
Sprinkle the caraway seeds (if using), salt, and dry milk powder over the flour. Avoid letting these ingredients touch the water directly.
Create a small well in the center of the flour mixture and add the active dry yeast.
Secure the pan in the bread machine and set to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' cycle with a medium crust setting.
Start the machine and allow the program to run its full cycle (approximately 3 hours, depending on your machine).
Once the bread is finished baking, carefully remove the pan from the machine using oven mitts. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
