Viewed: 77 - Published at: 4 years agoIngredients
- 3/4 cup warm skim milk
- 1/4 cup sugar (or substitute)
- 1/4 tsp.salt
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1/4 cup warm water
- 1 pkg. yeast (or 2 1/2 tsp.)
- 1 c wheatflour
- 1 1/2 c flour
- 1/2c wheat germ
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamon
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries or apricots
- 1/4 cup lemon and/or orange rind (optional)
Method
- Stir sugar, salt and oil into warm milk. Put yeast into bowl and add warm water (from faucet). Add lukewarm milk mixture, 2 cups flour & cardamon. Beat until smooth. Add the rest of flour and start to knead on floured counter top until elastic. Put in a greased bowl, turning greased side up. Cover, let rise until doubled, ~ 1 hr. (** If it is winter, put bowl on oven set at a low temp -- warm to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. This will help it rise faster. Be patient!(The more it rises, the lighter and yummier it'll be). Shape into oblong loaf, place onto a greased baking sheet. Brush with a little oil, cover, let rise until doubled ~45 min. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. At this point I have to try not to eat entire loaf! I always double recipe and freeze a loaf.
