Viewed: 74 - Published at: 4 years agoIngredients
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 cup warm water (105° to 115°)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup apple butter
- 2 1/2 cups bread flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup toasted honey-flavored wheat germ
- Vegetable cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon skim milk
Method
- Combine first 4 ingredients in a 2-cup liquid measuring cup; let stand 5 minutes. Stir in apple butter. Combine yeast mixture, bread flour, and next 3 ingredients in a large mixing bowl; beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until well blended.
- Sprinkle wheat germ evenly over work surface. Turn dough out onto surface, and knead until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes). Place in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 50 minutes or until doubled in bulk.
- Punch dough down, and shape into an 8-inch round loaf. Place loaf on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, 30 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Brush loaf with milk. Bake at 425° for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°, and bake 10 additional minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Remove loaf from baking sheet immediately; cool on a wire rack. Cut loaf into wedges.
