Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup beer
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine
2 1/2 cups bread flour
1/2 cup rye flour
1 tablespoon gluten flour
3 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon active dry yeast or 1 teaspoon bread machine yeast
1/2 cup dark raisin

Steps:

Add the ingredients to the machine according to the manufacturer's directions.
Select the basic white bread cycle.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients. Freshly milled flour and real butter will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your bread.
Knead the dough well. This will help to develop the gluten in the flour and make the bread strong and elastic.
Let the dough rise in a warm place. This will help the yeast to grow and produce carbon dioxide gas, which will cause the bread to rise.
Bake the bread at a high temperature. This will create a crispy crust and a chewy interior.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Kneip bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this bread at home. So next time you are looking for a hearty and satisfying bread, give kneip bread a try!
