Course: breads
Cuisine: American
Servings: 1 x

Ingredients

  • 1 cup All purpose Flour
  • 1¼ ~ 1½ cups Whole wheat flour chapati flour or Indian style
  • tsps Active dry Yeast
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ¾ cup Milk
  • ¼ cup Water
  • ¼ cup Butter
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tbsp Butter - melted

Instructions

  • In a sauce pan, heat milk, honey and butter until butter melts. Let the mixture cool to 110F~120F. Add yeast and stir, set aside for 10 minutes or until the mixture is very frothy.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flours, salt and the yeast mixture. Knead into a smooth, elastic dough, about 10 minutes.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover and set aside for 1 hour or until the dough doubles in volume.
  • Grease a 8.5"x4.5" loaf pan with cooking spray or butter.
  • Lightly punch the dough down and divide into 2 halves. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a 10"x7" rectangle. Starting from the narrow end, roll the dough into a tight log. Place the log seam side down in the prepared loaf pan.
  • Repeat with the other half of the dough and place the log next to the first one in the loaf pan.
  • Cover the pan loosely with a greased plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let rise until the dough crests 1" over the rim of the loaf pan, about 40 minutes or upto 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • Bake the bread for 30~40 minutes or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Brush melted butter on top for a softer crust.
  • Let the bread cool in the pan for 4~5 minutes. Then remove onto a wire rack and let the bread cool completely before slicing.
