While Mom was busy with the rest of the meal, Dad helped by making this flat bread. There's no mistaking that this flavorful bread is homemade. It has a wonderful texture and lovely golden color. -Anne Heinonen, Howell, Michigan Ingredients:
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
2 cups warm water (110° to 115°), divided |
1/3 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon salt |
1/2 cup rye or king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
5-1/2 to 6 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of water. Add sugar, oil, salt, rye or whole wheat flour, 3 cups all-purpose flour and remaining water; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a soft dough.
2. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3. Punch dough down. Divide in half. On a greased baking sheet, flatten each half to 1-in. thickness. Pierce each loaf several times with a fork. Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes.
4. Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 2 loaves (32 slices).
