DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Sprinkle yeast over 1/4 cup of the
water in large bowl of electric mixer.
Add 1 teaspoon of the brown sugar.
Let stand until soft (about 5 minutes). Stir in remaining water, milk,
remaining brown sugar, salt, and oil.
|
|
|
|
2:
Add 3 1/2 cups of the unbleached
flour. Mix to blend, then beat at
medium speed until smooth and elastic
(about 5 minutes). Stir in whole
wheat flour and apple. Then stir
in about 3/4 cup more unbleached
flour to make a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a board or
pastry cloth coated with some of the
remaining 1/2 to 1 cup unbleached
flour.
|
|
|
|
3:
Knead until dough is smooth
and springy and small bubbles
form just under surface (12 to 15
minutes), adding just enough flour to
prevent dough from being sticky. Turn dough in a greased bowl.
Cover with plastic wrap and a towel;
let rise in a warm place until doubled
in bulk (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours).

|
|
4:
Punch dough down and divide
into two equal portions. Shape each
into a loaf. Place loaves in greased
4 1/2 by 8 1/2-inch loaf pans. Let rise
until almost doubled in bulk (40 to
45 minutes). Preheat oven to 350° F. Bake until
loaves are well browned and
sound hollow when tapped (40 to 45
miriutes). Remove loaves from pans
and let cool on wire racks.
