- 1 cup water
- 1 egg
- 2 1/2 cups bread flour
- 1 cup rye flour
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 tbsp. butter
- 3 tbsp. unsulphured molasses
- 2 1/2 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp. caraway seed
- 1/2 tsp. instant coffee (optional)
- 1/3 cup raisins
- 2 3/4 tsp. active dry yeast
- 3 tbsp. instant potato flakes
- In a small saucepan, combine water, raisins, potato flakes, caraway seeds, butter, molasses. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Allow to sit for 30 minutes or until lukewarm.
- Add remaining ingredients to bread machine and pour in liquids and raisin mixture when cooled.
- Select medium crust setting on bread machine and press start. Do not use a rapid-rise or quick setting.
To bake conventionally:
- If you use the dough setting and bake this in a conventional oven, coat the bottom of the pan with a light dusting of cornmeal.
- Shape into a round oblong loaf. Coat with a light egg wash (1 tablespoon water mixed with 1 egg white).
- Bake at 350F degrees until loaf sounds hollow when tapped on bottom, but be careful not to overbake as this will dry it out.

A wonderful bread recipe. I also made it without the raisins and used it as a sandwich bread.

I did not have instant coffee on hand but it was wonderful without it.
