Seven-Grain Cereal Bread

Makes 1 loaf

2 to 2-1 / 2 cups whole wheat flour

1 envelope FLEISCHMANN’S RapidRise Yeast

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup water

1 / 4 cup milk

2 tablespoons butter or margarine

2 tablespoons honey

2 / 3 cup seven-grain hot cereal

Directions
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast, and salt. Heat water, milk, butter and honey until very warm (120o to130oF). Stir in cereal; let stand 2 minutes. Gradually add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.

Divide dough in half; roll each half to 7-inch rope. Place ropes side by side in greased 8-1 / 2 x 4-1 / 2-inch loaf pan. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Bake at 400oF for 25 to 30 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; cool on wire rack.
