Cocoa Rye Bread in a Bread Machine

We get questions about making sourdough bread in bread machines. Yes, you can. Our cookbook has many bread machine recipes and great hints. Here is a recipe from one of Ed's books, Worldwide Sourdoughs From Your Bread Machine, that he co-wrote with Donna Rathmell.

Cocoa Rye Bread

Cocoa rye is out of Germany. The cocoa addition offers a unique flavor and produces a super dark bread. Use a French or basic white cycle. This recipe is for 1 1/2lb.

2 cups Sourdough Culture
1 cup White Bread Flour
Knead for 5 minutes, allow to sit for 8 hours, add following ingredients and start cycle.
1/4 cup Water
1 tsp. Salt
1 tbp. Sugar
1 tbp. Vegetable Oil
1/4 cup Cocoa
1 tbs. Caraway Seeds
2 tsp. Vital Gluten
1 1/2 cups Rye Flour
2/3 cup White Bread Flour
Water as Needed

Happy Baking!
