Whole Wheat Bread via Taste of Home Everyday Light Meals |
- 2-1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1-1/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 3/4 cup finely chopped walnuts (omitted)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 package (1/4 ounce) quick-rise yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup reduced-fat plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, nuts (if using), brown sugar, yeast and salt.
- In a saucepan, heat the water, yogurt and butter to 120-130F. Add to dry ingredient; beat until smooth.
- Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a soft dough (we wound up using the full amount of flour listed in the ingredients). Turn out onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes (I just ran it in the Kitchenaid with the dough hook), Do not let rise.
- Shape dough into a ball; place on baking sheet coated with nonstick cooking spray. Cover and let rest in a warm place for 20 minutes (I know for sure that if I cover this dough and put it in a warm place, it's going to rise. They just told me not to let it rise. Is this some sort of test? What do I do if it starts to rise? Talk it down?)
- Bake at 400F (200C, Gasmark 6) for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown (we went close to 40 minutes. Baking times may vary). Remove from pan to cool on wire rack.
Don't forget to cut an "X" about 1/2" deep in the top before baking to prevent the loaf from looking like a nuclear bomb test. Good times! |
