    "Caraway Rye Bread Recipe with Step by Step Pictures. This bread has the perfect texture and delicious taste and flavour from the rye flour and caraway seeds. Bake it yourselves to feel it"

    Caraway rye bread is my latest discovery. I started loving caraway flavour in my bread ever since I baked black bread. So I wanted to make a bread which has a prominent taste and aroma of caraway seeds.

    I baked this bread yesterday and loved it to the core. The bread has whole wheat flour, rye flour and all purpose flour in them which gives the best moist texture.

    1. Black Bread
    2. Brioche Bread

    HOW TO MAKE CARAWAY RYE BREAD RECIPE

    • Take warm water in a jug, add in honey and mix well. Sprinkle yeast over it and let it stand for 5 mins till yeast activates.
    • Once yeast activates, add in treacle and olive oil and mix well.
    • Take flour, rye flour, whole wheat flour, salt, caraway seeds in the bowl of a stand mixer.
    • Mix it on low speed for 30 seconds.
    • Now add in the wet mixture and let it mix for at least 5 to 8 mins, Make sure you stop it in between and give a good scrape before mixing again.
    • Once dough is mixed well. Transfer the dough into a well oiled bowl. Cover with a cloth and set aside somewhere warm for 1 hour till it doubles in size.
    • Take a loaf pan, oil it well and sprinkle flour all over it. Set aside.
    • Once the dough is risen. Transfer it carefully to a floured work surface. Don't deflate the dough. Flatten it gently so the air pockets are still there.
    • Roll it carefully and transfer to the loaf pan.
    • Leave the loaf pan aside for 30 to 45 mins till it is well risen.
    • Meanwhile preheat oven to 180 degree C.
    • Pop the bread into the oven and let it bake for 40 to 45 mins.
    • Once it is baked. Remove from oven and let it cool in the loaf pan for 2 mins.
    • Now un mould the bread. Leave it to cool completely in a wire rack for several hours.
    • Once cooled completely. Slice and serve.

    TIPS & TRICKS FOR BAKING RYE BREAD

    • I used a stand mixer for making the bread. You could use hands to knead the dough really well. Knead it for at least 10 mins if working with hands.
    • If you have dough hook attachment in your electric hand mixer then you can use that.
    • Once the dough is risen, don't deflate it. Just transfer it gently to a work surface and roll it carefully. This way the air pockets stays in the bread and makes the bread soft and fluffier.
    • If you don't have treacle, then you can substitute with honey or brown sugar.
    • You can use whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour.
    • Cool the bread on wire rack completely before slicing into it.

    SERVING SUGGESTIONS

    Rye bread makes the best sandwiches and toasts.

    Best Grilled Cheese 

    STORAGE SUGGESTIONS

    • Cooled loaf can be stored in a ziploc cover in a bread box for 2 to 3 days at room temperature.
    • You can store this in fridge for up to 10 days.
    • Store the loaf in freezer for 2 to 3 months.

      With original ingredient measures, more like batter than dough. Had to add about 1.5 cups more flour to achieve even wet dough. Once adjusted, the loaf turned out lovely.
