Ingredients:

Dough:

1 3/5 cups white bread flour

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 Tbsp fine sea salt

4 Tbsp unsalted butter softened and diced

3 1/2 tsp dried yeast

1 1/4 water at body temperature

1 Tbsp molasses

Method:

1  Sift the flours and salt into a large bowl. Some grains from whole wheat will be caught in the sifter or sieve; tip them into the bowl. Rub the butter, and make a well in the center. Dissolve the yeast in 2 Tbsp water, then pour into the well in the flour, along with the molasses and enough of the remaining water to form a smooth dough.

2  Tip the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 10-15 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic. Leave the dough to rise in a lightly oiled bowl covered with a damp dish towel for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
