Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 grams Rye flour
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Caraway seeds (optional)
- 60 milliliters Molasses
- 300 milliliters Buttermilk
- 30 grams Unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and grease a standard loaf pan lightly with butter or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the rye flour, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and caraway seeds (if using) until evenly combined.
In another bowl, mix the molasses, buttermilk, and melted butter until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing the batter.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon or spatula.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
