    This easy prep bread requires a few minutes of kneading, but bakes into a beautiful loaf that I like to make tuna or chicken salad sandwiches with, or just have as toast at breakfast. It will last in the bread box up to 3 days. Easily doubles and freezes.

    Ingredients

    • 1 package yeast (2 1/4 tsp.)
    • 1 cup warm milk
    • 1 beaten egg
    • 2 cups whole wheat flour
    • 1/3 cup rye flour or more whole wheat
    • 1 cup AP flour
    • 1 tsp. salt
    • 2-3 tbs. honey
    • 3 tbs.melted butter
    • optional: flax seed, wheat germ

    Directions

    1. Use 1 tbs. butter to grease a 9x5 loaf pan.
    2. Beat the egg.
    3. Add yeast to warm milk, let sit 5 minutes.
    4. Stir in egg, honey, 2 tbs. butter
    5. Add flour, then salt.
    6. Mix well, put dough on a floured counter.
    7. Knead the dough, adding a bit of flour until the dough is smooth and is not tacky.
    8. Cover and let rise until doubled - 1 or 2 hours.
    9. Shape and place in the loaf pan. If you're adding seeds, bran, oatmeal flakes, etc., on top, spritz the top of the loaf and gently press the topping on, spritz again.
    10. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled - 45 minutes to over an hour.
    11. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
    12. Bake 30-45 minutes.
