Granary Bread [ADA]

Granary Bread

An old favorite that always makes the house smell so homey. Requires 2-24 hours in the refrigerator, so it is a good selection when you don't have a large block of time. You can mix and shape it one night and bake it the next.

1 Combine 2 cups of flour, yeast, and salt in a large bowl. Stir well. Add honey, margarine, and hot water. Beat with electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes. Scrape bowl. Beat in 1 cup more flour and 1/2 cup graham flour. Beat at high speed for 1 minute or until thick and elastic.

4 Place in 8-inch loaf pan coated with nonstick cooking spray. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 2-24 hours.
5 When ready to bake, remove from refrigerator, uncover, and let stand for 10 minutes. Make 6-1/4 inch deep cuts, spoke fashion, in tops of loaves. Bake at 400 degrees F for 30-40 minutes. Use lower oven rack.
