Ingredients
-
1/4 cup
lukewarm water
-
1/2 tablespoon
instant yeast
-
1 1/4 cups
applesauce
-
2 tablespoons
neutral oil
-
4 tablespoons
granulated sugar
-
1/2 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
-
2 1/2 cups
bread flour
-
1 cup
whole wheat flour
Directions
-
In the bowl of an electric mixer or just a large bowl, combine the lukewarm water and instant yeast. Allow to proof.
-
Then add in the rest of the ingredients: applesauce, oil, sugar, cinnamon, bread flour, and whole wheat flour.
-
Mix on medium speed or knead by hand until an elastic dough is formed. It should not stick to your finger or be stiff like play dough.
-
Cover the bowl with a damp towel and allow to rest in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
-
Then, dump the dough onto a baking sheet or pan of choice. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees while you let the dough rise for another 15 minutes.
-
Bake for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted comes out completely clean. When you tap the top, it should sound hollow.
-
Allow to cool before you cut into it. Warm bread is actually really good 🙂
