Colonial Whole Grain Bread
by:    Sadie Smith  
 
Colonial Whole Grain Bread Recipe is a hearty bread made with yeast, wheat flour, all-purpose flour, rye flour, yellow cornmeal, brown sugar and egg which is very flavorful and tasty.


INGREDIENTS
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 1/2 cups unbleached or all-purpose flour
3/4 cup rye flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 packages active dry yeast
1 tablespoon salt
2 1/2 cups hot tap water (120° to 130° F)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg


DIRECTIONS
1: Blend flours and cornmeal. Combine 2 1/2 cups flour mixture, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir water, oil, and egg into flour mixture; beat until smooth, about 3 minutes on high speed of electric mixer.
 
2: Gradually stir in enough more flour mixture to make a soft dough. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic (5 to 8 minutes).
 
3: Place in an oiled bowl; turn to oil top of dough. Cover; let rise in a warm place until double in bulk (about 1 hour). Punch dough down. Divide in half; shape into loaves. Place in 2 greased 9x5x3-inch loaf pans. Cover; let rise until double in bulk (about 30 minutes).
 
4: Bake at 375°F 35 to 40 minutes, or until done.
