Ingredients
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Water
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1.5 cups Bread flour
- 2 tablespoons Dry milk powder
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Directions
Step 1
1. Add the milk and water into the bread machine pan. Both should be warmed to about 110°F (43°C) to activate the yeast without killing it.
Step 2
2. Pour in the maple syrup, then add the unsalted butter. Cut the butter into small chunks to help it incorporate more easily during mixing.
Step 3
3. Sprinkle the salt around the edges of the bread machine pan to keep it separate from the yeast at the start.
Step 4
4. Add the whole wheat flour, bread flour, and dry milk powder into the pan. Ensure these dry ingredients fully cover the wet ingredients.
Step 5
5. Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the active dry yeast. This ensures the yeast doesn't activate prematurely.
Step 6
6. Place the bread pan into your bread machine and secure it according to your machine's instructions.
Step 7
7. Select the 'Whole Wheat' or equivalent setting on your bread machine. Choose the 'Medium' crust option, if available.
Step 8
8. Start the bread machine and let it run its full cycle, which typically takes about 3 hours.
Step 9
9. Once the baking cycle is complete, remove the bread pan from the machine and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before gently turning out the loaf onto a cooling rack.
Step 10
10. Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing for best results.
