Peanut Butter Bread with White Whole Wheat Recipe | Bread Baking
I've madepeanut butter breada number of different ways, but I didn't think about addingwhole wheat flourto the recipe until recently. I don't know what took me so long. White whole wheat is the perfect ingredient, adding its own subtle nuttiness to the taste, and more texture as well.
As a bonus,if you're trying to add more whole grains to your diet, this is a pretty unobtrusive way to get them in.Everyone will notice the peanut flavor and no one will notice the grains.
Tips on Making this Recipe...
by hand-kneading »
in a stand mixer »
with a food processor »
For a change, I decided to make this loaf in the food processor. You can certainly make it in a stand mixer or by hand.
I used creamy peanut butter, but you could substitute chunky, if you prefer. Or use the creamy and toss in some chopped nuts as well.
When I made this, the dough got pretty warm during the processing, so it rose very fast. I decided to punch it down and let it rise a second time before shaping and baking. If yours rises slower or if you don't have time for a second rise, skip that extra step and proceed to shaping right away.

1cuplukewarmwater
2 1/2teaspoonsyeast
1tablespoonbrown sugar
1 cup (4 1/2盎司)white whole wheat flour
1 cup (4 1/2盎司)bread flour
1teaspoonsalt
1/2cupcreamy peanut butter
Directions
Mix the water, sugar, and yeast, and set aside until it's foamy, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, put the flours, salt, and peanut butter into the bowl of your food processor fitted with the dough blade (or whatever is recommended by the manufacturer). Pulse the processor a few times to distribute the salt and incorporate the peanut butter into the flour.
Sprinkle some cornmeal on the bottom of an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan, and/or spray it with baking spray for added insurance.
When the yeast mixture is foamy, stir it again. Then, with the food processor running, pour the yeast mixture into the food processor as fast as the dough will absorb it. Continue processing until the dough forms a ball and cleans the sides of the food processor bowl.
Check the dough for texture and temperature. It should be smooth and elastic. If the dough is getting warm, let it rest a bit before you continue processing, as needed, until the dough is elastic.
面团转移到一个干净的碗。没有娘家姓的d to oil the bowl - there's enough oil in the peanut butter to keep it from sticking too much. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set it aside until it has doubled, about 40 minutes, depending on how warm your dough was after processing.
Punch the dough down and reshape it into a ball and put it back into the bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic and let it rise until doubled again, about 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 325°F.
When the dough has doubled, take it out of the bowl and form it into a log that will fit in the pan. (You can also make a free-form loaf, if you prefer.) Cover the pan with plastic wrap and set it aside to rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
When the dough has fully risen it should be just a bit above the top of the pan, and if you press it with a fingertip, the indent will remain instead of springing back. Slash the dough as desired, and bake for 45 minutes at 325°F, until the loaf is brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
Remove the loaf from the pan and allow to cool on a rack before slicing.
