Mixed Grain Bread
The Food Guide Pyramid suggests eating six to eleven servings from the Bread, Cereal, Rice, and Pasta group on a daily basis. It does sound like a lot, but it truly isn't. Visit Grains for Your Health for suggestions and tips.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup boiling water
1 package active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm (105 to 115 degrees) water
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup rye flour
2-1/4 to 2-3/4 cup all purpose flour
Directions:
Mix cornmeal, brown sugar, salt and oil with boiling water, cool to lukewarm (105 - 115 degrees).
Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water; stir into cornmeal mixture. Add whole wheat and rye flours and mix well. Stir in enough all purpose flour to make dough stiff enough to knead.
Place dough in lightly oiled bowl, turning oil top. Cover with clean towel; let rise in warm place until double, about 1 hour.
Punch dough down; turn onto clean surface. Cover with clean towel; let rest 10 minutes. Shape dough and place in greased 9 x 5 inch pan. Cover with clean towel; let rise until almost double, about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until bread sounds hollow when tapped. Cover with aluminum foil during baking if bread is browning too quickly. Remove bread from pan and cool on wire rack.
