Ingredients

• 2 cups rye flour
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp active dry yeast
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 cup warm water
• 2 tbsp olive oil

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rye flour, all-purpose flour, yeast, salt, and sugar.
2. Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
5. Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it in a greased loaf pan and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
6. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rye bread batter for about 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped.
7. Remove the bread from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
8. Enjoy your homemade rye bread batter with butter, cheese, or your favorite toppings.
