2 pkg. active dry yeast
1/2 c. warm water
1 1/2 (one and one-half) c. lukewarm milk
2 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/2 c. molasses
2 Tbsp. butter
3 1/4 (three and one-fourth) c. rye flour, unsifted
2 1/2 (two and a half) c. bread flour, unsifted
Dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl combine milk, sugar, and salt. Use a mixer to beat in molasses, butter, yeast mixture and 1 c. of rye flour. Use a wooden spoon to mix in the remaining rye flour. Add white flour by stirring until the dough is stiff enough to knead. Knead 5-10 mins., adding flour as needed. If the dough sticks to your hands or the board add more flour. Cover dough and let rise 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until double.
Punch down dough and divide to form 2 round loaves. Let loaves rise on a greased baking sheet until double, about 1-1/2 hours. Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit. Bake for 30-35 mins.
Makes 2 round loaves
