3 cup Unbleached flour
1 cup Whole wheat flour
One half cup Nonfat milk powder
1 One fourth cup Warm water (85 deg for
Regular yeast, 100 deg for
Rapid rise)
1 tablespoon Molasses
1 pack Yeast
1 teaspoon Coarse salt or Three fourths tsp table
Salt
One fourth teaspoon Ascorbic acid crystals (such

1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
1 Egg white

Proof yeast in One half cup of warm water with molasses. Add yeast mixture to 2
cups of unbleached flour along with One half cup more of the warm water. Mix,
either by hand or with an electric mixer, until the gluten is well
developed, about two min. Mix remaining One fourth cup water with last four
ingredients and add to first mixture along with the whole wheat flour and
dry milk. Mix until well combined (this can also be done by hand or with
an electric mixer). Turn out on a WELL floured board and knead, adding
additional flour as necessary, until you have a slightly sticky, satiny
dough. Form dough into a ball and place in an oiled bowl to rise until
doubled in bulk. Punch dough down and form into a loaf and place in an
oiled 5X9 bread pan. Cover with a towel and allow to rise until doubled in
bulk (the dough will rise well above the top of the pan). Place loaf into a
preheated 425 deg. oven and bake for 10 min. Reduce oven temp to 350 deg
and bake an additional 25 min. Allow to cool before slicing.
