Fast No-Knead Whole Wheat Bread image

This recipe is a variation on the original no-knead bread, which Mark Bittman learned from the baker Jim Lahey. It's an attempt to bake a loaf with a higher percentage of whole grain. The results are wonderful: you can use 100 percent whole grains, you can vary their percentages all you want (though all-rye bread doesn't rise much at all) and you can add nongrain flours, sweeteners or dairy. If the proportions of liquid, solid and yeast stay the same, the timing and results will be consistent.

Time 45m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup whole rye flour
1/2 cup coarse cornmeal
1 teaspoon instant yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
Oil as needed

Steps:

  • Combine flours, cornmeal, yeast and salt in a large bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups water and stir until blended; dough will be shaggy. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rest about 4 hours at warm room temperature, about 70 degrees.
  • Oil a standard loaf pan (8 or 9 inches by 4 inches; nonstick works well). Lightly oil your hands and shape dough into a rough rectangle. Put it in pan, pressing it out to the edges. Brush top with a little more oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest 1 hour more.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake bread about 45 minutes, or until loaf reaches an internal temperature of 210 degrees. Remove bread from pan and cool on a rack.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread turned out really dry. I think I might have added too much flour.

I've tried this recipe a few times and I can never get it right. The bread always turns out flat and dense.

This bread is a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, fluffier bread.

This bread is a great way to use up leftover whole wheat flour. It's also a healthier alternative to white bread.
