COUNTRY FRENCH BREAD

Some bakers make this bread round, rather than the traditional long loaf.

1 tablespoon active dry yeast or 1 (1/4-oz.) package

1-1/2 cups lukewarm water 110F (45C)

2 eggs, beaten

5 to 6 cups WHOLE-WHEAT HOT ROLL MIX, page 18

1 tablespoon cornmeal

1 to 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted, if desired

In a bowl, stir yeast into water until softened. Stir in eggs. Beat in 5 cups WHOLE-WHEAT HOT ROLL MIX until blended. Let rest 2 minutes. Stir in more mix to make a soft dough. Knead 7 to 10 minutes until smooth. Grease bowl. Place dough in bowl, turning to grease all sides. Cover with a damp towel. Let rise in a warm draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Punch down dough. Let rest 10 minutes.

Grease 2 large baking sheets. Sprinkle with cornmeal; set aside. On a lightly oiled surface, divide dough in half. Shape each into a ball. Roll each ball to a 10” x 3” rectangle. Roll up firmly starting with one long side. Pinch to seal edges. Place loaves seam-side down on prepared sheets. Make 5 diagonal slashes across top of each loaf. Brush with water. Let rise until almost doubled.

Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Brush loaves with water again. Place a baking pan on lower oven shelf. Pour 1 inch warm water in pan. Place loaves in center of oven. Bake 30 to 35 minutes until golden brown. Brush with butter, if desired. Makes 2 loaves.
