Instructions: Place ingredients in the bread machine pan in the order suggested by the machines manufacturer. Select the dough cycle.

Divide dough into two unequal parts, and shape into loaves. Place in one 9- by 5-inch loaf pan and one 7- by 3-inch loaf pan; non-stick pans are preferable, but greased and floured normal pans will suffice. Cover, and allow to raise until doubled in size.

Bake at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes. Longer, for a more browned and chewier crust.

This recipe yields 2 loaves.

Comments: Like english muffins, slices of this bread must be toasted to taste right.

Yield: 2 loaves
