Categories: Breads
Yield: 1 servings

3 tb Dry yeast
1 ts Sucanat*
1 c Warm water
3/4 c Rye flour
2 c Wholewheat flour
1 ts Salt
1 c Oatbran
1 tb Carob or cocoa powder
1 ts Caraway seeds
1 ts Fennel seeds
2 tb Cider vinegar
2 tb Dark molasses
2 tb Corn oil
1 tb Minced onion

Dissolve yeast & sucanat in about 1/2 c water & set aside till
yeast is
foamy.

Combine rye flour, wholewheat flour, salt, oatbran, carob, carawy &
fennel
seeds.

In a separate bowl, combine the vinegar, molasses, oil & onion. Add wet
ingredients to the dry ingredients & blend well. Add yeast & mix
well. If
the dough is too stiff or dry, add more water. If too sticky add more
flour. Turn dough out onto a floured surface; flatten it out; shape it
into a round, shallow loaf. Place loaf on a lightly oiled baking sheet,
brush dough with oil & let it rise in a warm spot until the dough holds
an
imprint when gently touched (about 30 minutes). Bake at 375F for 35 to 40
minutes & cool on a wire rack. Lightly brush the top with oil.
