Carrot and Rye Flour Bread

Carrot and Rye Flour Bread
My favorite morning treat is this deliciously moist bread, packed with the natural sweetness of carrots and the earthy goodness of rye flour. It's the perfect way to start your day, and it's healthy too! A lovely breakfast or snack that's both nourishing and delightful to eat.
Ingredients
  • 2 cups (475ml) water, at 98°F (37°C)
  • 1 3/4 cups (210g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (115g) rye flour
  • 1 finely grated carrot
  • 0.88 oz (25g) active dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions

1. Start by combining 500ml (2 cups) of warm water and 15g (0.5oz or 1 packet) of yeast in a large mixing bowl. Let it sit for 5 minutes until the yeast is activated.

2. Add 375g (2.5 cups) of all-purpose flour, 125g (0.8 cup) of rye flour, and 10g (0.4 oz or 2 teaspoons) of salt to the bowl. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.

3. Knead the dough for 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

5. Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).

6. Punch down the dough and shape it into a round loaf.

7. Place the loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drizzle with 15ml (1 tablespoon) of oil, and sprinkle with 25g (0.9 oz or 1/8 cup) of grated carrot.

8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.

9. Let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
