This bread got positive feedback from David. A couple loaves went out as parts of Christmas presents.
Norwegian Wheat Bread
1 cup water
1 egg
2 tsp. active dry yeast
2 Tbsp. packed brown sugar
2 Tbsp. butter, softened
2 tsp. salt
1/3 cup buttermilk powder
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 1/2 cups bread flour
Combine egg and water, and heat until between 105ºF and 115ºF. Pour water into warmed mixing bowl with and sugar yeast. Let stand 5 minutes.
Stir in butter, salt, buttermilk powder and wheat flour. Beat well. Cover and let rest 15 minutes. Slowly add bread flour. Mix until dough forms. Knead on medium speed until dough is smooth and springy but soft to the touch. Cover and let rise one hour.
Punch dough down and divide into 2 to 3 balls. Shape into round loaves and place on lightly greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. Preheat oven to 375ºF. Bake 30 to 45 minutes until loaves are golden. Cool on wire rack.
