Graham bread (abm)

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2½ cup White flour
1 pack Yeast
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
¼ teaspoon Ginger
1 cup Milk
¾ cup Water
¼ cup Molasses
3 tablespoons Butter
1 teaspoon Salt
3 cups Graham flour

Directions

In large bowl stir together white flour, yeast, cinnamon and ginger.

In saucepan combine milk, water, molasses, butter and salt. Heat to 115 to 120 degrees, and butter is almost melted. Add to flour mixture, beat on low speed of electric mixer ½ minute, scraping sides of bowl constantly. eat three minutes on high, stir in graham flour. Stir in as much remaining flour as you can stir in with a spoon. Turn out onto floured surface. Knead in enough white flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic, (8 to 10 minutes). You can use a bread machine for this, or personally I now use a Kitchenaid mixer with dough hook (since my two bread machines died). Shape into a ball, place in greased bowl, turn over once to coat. Cover, let rise until double, about 1 hour. Punch down, divide dough in half. cover let rest 10 minutes. Shape into two loaves, whatever shape you want, and place in bread pans, pie pans for round loaves, or free form on a cookie sheet. Cover, let rise until double, about 30 minutes. Bake 375 25 - 30 minutes. Cool before slicing. This is one of the best breads I have ever tasted.
