Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup beer
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 cup rye flour
- 2 cups bread flour
- 2 tablespoons dry milk powder
- 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
- 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
Instructions
Pour the beer and water into the bread machine's baking pan. Ensure the liquids are at room temperature for optimal yeast activation.
Add the rye flour and bread flour to the pan, making sure to cover the liquids completely.
Sprinkle the dry milk powder, caraway seeds, instant espresso powder, sugar, and salt evenly over the flour mixture.
Drizzle the olive oil over the top of the dry ingredients.
Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients, ensuring it doesn't reach the liquid layer. Add the active dry yeast to this well.
Place the baking pan into the bread machine and secure it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Select the 'Basic' bread setting with a medium crust option on the bread machine. Most machines will have a cycle time of approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes.
Start the bread machine and allow it to knead, rise, and bake the bread automatically.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the baking pan from the machine using oven mitts. Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.
