Seeded Black Bread

This is a super blackity black bread

I made this as part of fundraiser for The World Central Kitchen. I made Ukrainian Borscht, this bread and cookies.

With molasses, cocoa powder, and espresso powder this bread is the deepest shade of black.

Black Bread

255g water, lukewarm

28g cider vinegar

1 1/4 teaspoons salt

28g oil 

43g molasses

14g dark brown sugar, packed

18g black cocoa

1 teaspoon espresso powder, or instant coffee powder

1 Tbsp caraway seeds

½ tsp fennel seeds

2 ¼  teaspoons instant yeast

300g Bread Flour

106g Rye flour

Throw it all into the bowl of a stand mixer with a hook. Let it run for 10 minutes. Add more flour if too moist. 

Coat a bowl with oil, turn the bread on all sides, cover and let rise until doubled. 

Punch down and shape the loaf. Let rise for 60-90 minutes. 

Bake 35-45 minutes at 350 until a thermometer inserted comes out 190 degrees.

Ukrainian Borscht is full of vegetables, beans and of course BEETS! Look at the color!
