    List of Ingredients




    2-1/2 to 3 cups bread flour
    1/2 cup water
    2 cups rye flour
    1/4 cup dark molasses
    2 pkg. dry yeast
    1/4 cup vegetable oil
    2 cups whole bran cereal
    1 square (1-oz) unsweetened chocolate
    1 tablespoon salt
    1 tablespoon caraway seeds
    1/4 cup water
    2 teaspoons onion powder
    1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
    1-1/2 cups milk
    caraway seeds (optional)


    Recipe



    In large mixer bowl, combine 1 cup bread flour, 1 cup rye flour, yeast,
    bran cereal, salt, caraway seeds and onion powder, mix well. In saucepan,
    heat milk, 1/2-cup water, molasses, oil and chocolate until very warm
    (125-130 degrees, chocolate does not need to melt). Add to flour mixture.
    Blend at low speed until moistened, beat 3 minutes at medium speed. By hand,
    gradually stir in remaining rye flour and enough remaining bread flour
    to make a firm dough. Knead on floured surface until smooth and elastic,
    about 5 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover, let
    rise in warm place until double, 30-45 minutes. Punch down dough.
    Divide into 2 parts. On lightly floured surface, shape each half into a
    round loaf. Place in greased 8-inch layer cake pans. Cover, let rise in
    warm place until almost doubled, about 15 minutes. Bake at 375 degrees
    for 40-45 minutes. Combine 1/4-cup water and cornstarch for glaze in small
    saucepan, heat to boiling. Brush on loaves 5 minutes before end of baking.
    Sprinkle caraway seeds on loaves, if desired. Return loaves to oven for
    5 minutes or until glaze is glossy and loaves sound hollow when tapped.
    Remove from pans when cool.
