    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2 1/2           cups  9-Gain Flour Blend -- King Arthur
    1 1/4      teaspoons  salt
    2        tablespoons  brown sugar -- or molasses
    2          teaspoons  instant yeast -- or active dry yeast
    2        tablespoons  butter -- or vegetable oil
    1 1/4           cups  water -- lukewarm

Hands-on time:	15 mins. to 20 mins.
Baking time:	35 mins. to 45 mins.
Total time:	2 hrs 50 mins. to 3 hrs 35 mins.
Yield:	1 loaf or 16 rolls

Mix and then knead all of the ingredients - by hand, mixer, or bread 
machine set on the dough cycle - to make a smooth, satiny dough. The 
dough will start out very dry-looking, but should become soft, 
smooth, and slightly sticky as you knead; adjust its consistency with 
additional flour or water as needed

Cover the dough, and allow it to rise for 1 hour, or until it's 
somewhat puffy though not necessarily doubled in bulk.

Shape the dough into a 9" log, and place it in a lightly greased 9" x 
5" loaf pan.

Cover the pan, and let the bread rise for about 1 hour, or until it's 
crowned about 1" over the rim of the pan. Towards the end of the 
rising time, preheat the oven to 350F.

Bake the bread for 35 to 45 minutes, or until its internal 
temperature registers 190F on an instant-read thermometer. If the 
bread seems to be browning too quickly, tent it lightly with foil 
after the first 20 minutes ofbaking.

Remove the bread from the oven, and turn it out of the pan onto a rack to cool.

Yield: 1 loaf.

tips from our bakers:
To make rolls: Divide the dough into 16 pieces. Roll each into a 
smooth ball, and place them into two lightly greased 9" round cake 
pans. Cover the pans, and let the rolls rise for about 1 hour, or 
until they're quite puffy. Bake the rolls in a preheated 400°F oven 
for 15 to 18 minutes, or until they're golden brown. Remove them from 
the oven, turn them onto a rack, and brush them with butter, if 
desired; this will give them a soft crust. Yield: 16 rolls.

To bake this loaf in your bread baking bowl: After its first rise, 
shape the dough into a round (boule), and place it in the lightly 
greased bowl. Cover the loaf, and let the bread rise for about 1 
hour, or until it's puffy and fills the bowl. Bake and finish the 
loaf according to the recipe instructions.

Description:
    "Wheat, barley, rye, oats, amaranth, quinoa, millet, sorghum, and 
teff - these are the nine whole grains that go into our 9-grain flour 
blend. This bread is a testament to their rich, nutty flavor."
