Caraway seeds, fennel, and onion powder add plenty of flavor to this hearty bread.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups hot water
  • 2 packages instant yeast
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 Tbs sugar
  • 1 Tbs salt
  • 1 Tbs instant coffee
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp fennel seeds
  • 2 Tbs caraway seeds
  • 1 Tbs onion powder
  • 1 cup bran
  • 2 cups wheat flour
  • 4 cups rye flour
  • 2 cups white flour

Directions

  • Add hot water to stand mixer mixing bowl.
  • Add yeast and stir to combine. Add vinegar, molasses, cocoa powder, melted butter, sugar, salt, instant coffee, garlic powder, fennel seeds, caraway seeds, and onion powder. Stir to combine.
  • Place mixing bowl on stand mixer and attach paddle mixer. Turn to low and add bran to mixture. Mix well.
  • Add wheat flour, rye flour, and white flour. Stir until just combined. Remove paddle attachment and add dough hook. Knead for 10–15 minutes. You may need to add a little more white flour. However, remember rye flour makes bread dough stickier than a regular white bread.
  • After dough has been kneaded, place the dough on the counter and add a little more white flour, if needed to get the right consistency.
  • Place the dough in a large greased bowl and let it double in size.
  • Punch down the dough and halve it. For round loaves, place in cake pans and for bread loaves, place on sheet pans in an oblong shape.
  • Let dough double in size again. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • For round loaves go ahead and place them in the oven after they have doubled in size the second time. For bread loaves, roll the dough and place in a loaf pan and let it rise again for about 30 minutes, then place it in the oven.
  • Bake at 375°F until the internal temperature is 200°F, about 50–60 minutes. Use an internal probe thermometer to check temperature.
  • When bread has reached temperature, remove from pans and let cool on cooling rack.
