  9. Here is a Quick Tip to cut the rising time.
  10. Scrape dough back into clean stand mixer bowl and, using the dough hook, knead in the whole-wheat flour and caraway seed, if using, until dough is smooth.

  12. Divide the dough in half and shape into 2 round or oblong loaves.
  13. Place loaves on greased baking sheets.
  14. Bread can also be placed in greased 9 inch by 5 inch loaf pans or 9 inch round pans.
  15. Cover and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
  16. Meanwhile, heat oven to 450 degrees.
  17. Brush the loaves with beaten egg white and bake for 15 minutes.
  18. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake 35 to 40 minutes longer or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the loaves registers 190 degrees.
  19. Remove from the oven and cool on wire racks.
  20. Store in an airtight container or slice loaves and freeze.
