Brown Bread

This is a recipe for the bread maker. I got it from Barry, Ian's dad, if I remember correctly it is one he adapted from one the the bread maker recipes.

Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup of water
2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp powdered milk
2 Tbsp oil
2 Tbsp molasses
2 Tbsp honey
2 cups white flour
1 1/2 cups whole wheat or dark rye flour
1 cup oatmeal
2 tsp yeast

Directions: Put all ingredients in the bread maker in the order given. You can choose to have the bread maker cook the loaf for you or you can choose the dough setting. I usually always use the dough setting and then bake the bread in the oven. Once the dough cycle is done I plop the dough out on the a floured surface and gently shape into to a loaf to fit into a bread pan. Then I set the oven to 350*F and put the pan on the stove top while the oven warms up. I allow the bread dough to rise again for 25-30 min and then put it in the oven and bake for 30 min.
