Thank you VeeV for letting me know that the original link to the recipe is now off Allrecipes.com. I will write it out for all of you because I just can’t keep this recipe to myself, it is so good!
You will need rye flour which is not always easy to find. I could only get a 5 lb bag that cost me $7! Yet when I was looking at the Caraway Rye Bread in the baking section of the grocery store, one old dry loaf was going for $4. This one recipe gives me two loaves of bread and it is super moist, unlike any Caraway Rye Bread I have ever eaten before.
Caraway Rye Bread
Ingredients
2 tsp of yeast
2 cups warm water
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tbsp caraway seeds
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tsp salt
2 1/2 cup rye flour
1 1/2 – 2 1/2 cups of all purpose flour, depending on how wet or dry the dough is.
I put the ingredients in the machine in typical breadmaker order: wet ingredients, sugar, salt, flour, herbs/spices and then the yeast. The yeast always goes in last. Put the breadmaker on dough cycle.
Place in a greased bowl, turning to coat the dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, around 1 hour. Punch down, divide in half. Shape each half into a ball.
Place in 2 greased 8″ round cake pans. Flatten balls into 6″ diameter. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes.
Bake at 375F for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown.
I do not think I can ever go back to the dry, crumbly Caraway Rye Bread I used to get at the bakery after eating this heavenly bread. Now that I have the rye flour I have all the ingredients in my pantry to make this at any time for zero cost.
Homemade food is the best!
Oh, my goodness! I want to come over and try that bread so badly! Rye with caraway is one of my favourites.
Inspired by you, Justin and I are thinking about getting a breadmaker. If we go for it, this will be one of the first things we try!
bread looks great 🙂 xoxo
It looks delicious!
I tell you, once you make your own bread you will never want to buy from the store again. I know bread is high in carbs but if I’m going to eat it, it had better be worth it. I hope you get the breadmaker Jamie, you would LOVE this bread!
Thanks Vedrana and Tracy! I’m glad you like the look of the bread, wish I could share it with you in person. 🙂
Looks fabulous Suzie, I’ll have to try this in my breadmaker. I love rye bread.
Thanks Julie! Make sure to add a little extra flour if dough is looking super wet. It’s so good though!
The bread looks delicious, almost as delicious as having you back! 🙂
Hi Suzie. I’m so glad your back!! I’ve been thinking about you and wondering how you were.
Thanks Genie! For both compliments. 🙂
Shell, it’s so great to hear from you. I’ve missed you! I hope you have been doing well.
Hi Suzie,
I just wanted to let you know I’ve got an award for you 🙂
Hello!!! So glad you are emerging again:) I missed your posts. That bread looks amazing!
That looks so amazing. I can almost feel the chewy texture in my mouth!
I am so glad you are back! I don’t care if you come visit my blog or not. That was never a concern for me. Yay! Food!
Thank you Jamie! Love the award and you deserve it too.
Missed you too Alice, it’s nice to be back.
Kim, the texture is out of this world. We are spoiled rotten, can’t go back to the store-bought loaves.
Thanks so much Kim, I’m glad you are happy I am back and can visit me again in my online kitchen. I am making you a cup of tea!
Oh Lordy, this looks fabulous. I buy Caraway Rye at a Saturday market for 3.75 that is just awesome but at that price I thought to make my own in my own breadmaker. I’ve never actually baked a loaf in the real oven in my life but I’m going to give it a go.
A question, I will bump up the flour by 1/4 cup and when it comes out of the breadmaker do you have to let it sit in the pans before it goes into the oven or can you just pop it in?
Hey Anon, sorry for the delayed response. Been crazy here for a bit with my Mom’s visit! I would definitely recommend letting it rise in the pans for half an hour before popping it in the oven. Good luck!
do you have the recipe for the caraway rye bread, i tried to go to allrecipes link and it brought me to Knaakkebrod or Nakkileipa …. i searched around on the site, but couldn’t find the caraway rye bread recipe.
help??
thanks

VeeV! Thank you so much for pointing out they totally changed the link. I will add the recipe tomorrow OK? And I will email it too. 🙂
I updated the recipe again, looks like the original used a lot more flour than necessary so I would recommending using 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour.
