   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/4           cup  unsalted butter -- melted, (4 Tbsp, 57g)
   2 1/2           cups  Whole Wheat Flour -- (283g) or white whole wheat
   1 1/2           cups  Unbleached All-Purpose Flour -- (177g)
   1         tablespoon  brown sugar -- (11g)
   1 1/2      teaspoons  salt
   2          teaspoons  instant yeast
   1 1/3           cups  warm milk -- (305g)
   1 1/2           cups  chopped walnuts -- toasted to golden brown Tip*, (170g)

Nut bread is the simple translation of pain aux noix, one of France's 
delightful whole-grain loaves. This golden, tender bread is fairly 
simple to make, but the texture and flavor are complex: oven heat 
brings out the walnuts' flavor, as well as the deep, rich taste of 
whole wheat. Serve this bread, thinly sliced, with a nice goat 
cheese, Roquefort, or a Brie or Camembert.

PREP: 17 mins
BAKE: 25 to 27 mins
TOTAL: 2 :28
YIELD: two 6" round loaves
SERVING SIZE: 51g

Combine all of the ingredients except the nuts, and knead - by hand, 
mixer, food processor or bread machine - until smooth.

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and let it rise, covered, 
for 1 hour, or until it's doubled in bulk.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly greased surface and gently but 
thoroughly knead in the walnuts. This will seem like messy work at 
first (the nuts will keep falling out onto the work surface), but 
persevere - eventually they'll stay where they belong.

Divide the dough in half, and shape each half into a ball. Place the 
balls on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, and let 
them rise, covered, for 45 minutes, until they're quite puffy, though 
not necessarily doubled in bulk.

Preheat the oven to 425F.

Uncover the loaves, and bake them for about 25 to 27 minutes, until 
they're golden brown. Remove the loaves from the oven, and transfer 
them to a rack to cool.

Cool the loaves before slicing. Store, well-wrapped, at room 
temperature for three days, or freeze for up to three months.

Tip*: How do you toast walnuts? You can stir them in a dry saucepan 
(no oil) set over medium heat until they're golden; or toast them in 
a preheated 350F oven for 6 to 8 minutes, again until golden.
