Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons white sugar
• 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup lukewarm milk
• 1 tablespoon yellow cornmeal
• 0.25 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
• 0.125 teaspoon baking soda

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Lightly grease a 9x5-inch microwave-safe loaf pan and sprinkle with cornmeal.

Step 2

Pour water into a large bowl. Add yeast and stir to dissolve. Add milk, sugar, salt, and baking soda, then add whole wheat flour; beat until well combined. Beat in all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until a soft dough forms.

Step 3

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Shape dough into a loaf and place into the prepared pan.

Step 4

Cook, uncovered, in a 650-watt microwave oven set at 50% power for 1 minute. Let rest for 10 minutes.

Step 5

Repeat Step 4 one or two times, until loaf has doubled in size.

Step 6

Microwave on high until top of loaf is no longer moist, 4 to 6 minutes.

Step 7

Remove from the microwave and let stand in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to finish cooling.
