Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Bread flour
- 1.5 cups Rye flour
- 2 teaspoons Caraway seeds (optional)
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Instructions
Start by measuring all the ingredients carefully, as precise quantities are critical for bread machine recipes.
Open the bread machine and ensure the paddle is securely attached to the bread pan.
Pour 1.25 cups of water into the bread pan, ensuring it is at room temperature.
Add 2 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and 1.5 teaspoons of salt to the water.
Carefully spoon in 2 cups of bread flour and 1.5 cups of rye flour, creating an even layer over the wet ingredients. Do not stir.
If desired, sprinkle 2 teaspoons of caraway seeds on top of the flour for a classic rye bread flavor.
Make a small well in the center of the flour layer and add 2.25 teaspoons of active dry yeast. Be sure the yeast does not touch any of the liquids to ensure proper activation.
Secure the bread pan in the bread machine and close the lid.
Select the basic or whole grain cycle, with a medium crust setting if your bread machine offers this option. Start the machine.
Allow the bread machine to mix, knead, rise, and bake the bread. This process will take approximately 3 hours depending on your machine's settings.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan with oven mitts and turn the loaf out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
