HONEY MOLASSES LIGHT RYE BREAD FOR A KITCHENAID



Honey Molasses Light Rye Bread For A KitchenAid image

This is a wonderful recipe for an everyday rye sandwich bread. The crumb is perfect. It's not too heavy and not too airy. It's just right. Slices into nice, even, thin slices ideal for sandwiches or toast. After it cools to the touch, I wrap loosely in aluminum foil, with the bread's ends exposed. When fully cool, slice and bag....

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup light molasses
2 tsp. salt
2 tb. butter
2 tb. caraway (optional)
1 cup boiling water
2 packets active dry yeast (i always use red star quick rise yeast.)
3/4 cup warm water (105-115 degrees)
2 cups rye flour (i used hodgson mill whole grain 100% stone ground rye) whole grains provide a smaller rise, but add a nutty flavor and nice texture.
3 1/2-4 cups ap flour

Steps:

  • 1. Place honey, molasses, salt, butter, caraway, (if using) and boiling water in small bowl. Stir until honey dissolves. Cool to lukewarm.
  • 2. Dissolve yeast in warm water in warmed mixer bowl. Add lukewarm honey mixture, rye flour and 1 cup AP flour. Attach bowl and dough hook to mixer. Turn to speed 2 and mix about 1 minute. Stop and scrape bowl, if necessary. (Never go above speed 2 when making bread dough.)
  • 3. Continue on speed 2, adding remaining AP flour 1/2 cup at a time until dough clings to hook and cleans sides of bowl or about 2 minutes. Knead on speed 2 for 2 minutes longer. **From KitchenAid: "Some doughs may occasionally climb over the collar of the hook. This usually indicates that the dough is sticky and more flour should be added."
  • 4. Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover with sprayed saran wrap. Let rise in warm place, free from drafts, for about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.
  • 5. Punch dough down and divide in half. Shape each half into a round loaf. Place on greased baking sheet. Cover. Let rise in warm place free from drafts, 45-60 minutes, or until doubled in bulk.
  • 6. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes. (Mine didn't take this long.) Cover loaves with aluminum foil if they are browning to quickly. Remove from baking sheets immediately and cool completely on wire racks. Brush tops with melted butter. *See my hint at top about cooling when just warm to the touch in loose foil. It retains moisture.

MOLASSES SWEETBREAD

This is my grandmother's recipe for molasses raisin bread from the Maritimes.

Provided by Lisa Hayes

Categories     Bread     Quick Bread Recipes

Time 3h15m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup molasses
3 tablespoons lard
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup boiling water
1 cup raisins
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ cups brown sugar
½ cup cream
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour a 9-inch cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the molasses, lard, salt, and raisins. Stir in the boiling water until smooth. Sift together the flour, ground ginger and baking soda. Stir the flour into the molasses mixture until smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared pan,
  • Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack before removing from the pan.
  • While the cake is baking, prepare the icing by simmering together the brown sugar and cream in a saucepan over medium heat. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. Pour the syrup into a bowl, add the butter, and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture begins to thicken, then set aside and allow to cool.
  • Once the frosting and cake are both cool, spread the icing on the cake and serve.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your sweetbread will taste. If possible, use organic ingredients to ensure the best quality.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your sweetbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the sweetbread at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for sweetbread is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake it at a higher temperature, the outside will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Let the sweetbread cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the bread to set properly.
