Bread
(from More-with-Less Cookbook)

Combine in large mixer bowl:
3 cups flour (I use whole wheat)
2 Tbsp instant yeast (or quick rising)
1/4 cup cocoa
1 Tbsp caraway seeds

Heat in saucepan until warm:
2 cups water
1/3 c molasses
2 Tbsp butter
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt

Add to dry mixture and beat for 3 minutes. Mix in 3 to 3 1/2 rye flour. Knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover; let rest 20 min. Punch down dough and divide in half. Shape each half into a round loaf. Place on a greased pie plate or cookie sheet. Brush surface with a little oil (I don't do this - I brush with milk after baking.) and slash with a sharp knife. Let rise until double about 45 min. Bake at 400 for 25-30 minutes.
