Pumpernickel Raisin
Bread
Makes 1 large loaf, approximately
24 servings
2¼
teaspoons active dry yeast
1¼ cups warm (105°-110°F) water
¼ cup molasses
2¾ cups unbleached bread flour
½ cup whole wheat flour
½ cup rye flour
1 ⁄
3
cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
powder
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
2 tablespoons vital wheat gluten
1½ teaspoons fine sea salt, or table salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
¾ cup raisins
2 teaspoons caraway seeds
Dissolve the yeast in the warm water with the
molasses. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes, or until
mixture is foamy. Add the flours, cornmeal,
cocoa and espresso powders, wheat gluten,
salt, and vegetable oil to the work bowl of
the Cuisinart ® Food Processor fitted with the
dough blade. Process for 10 seconds. With
the machine running, slowly add the water
and yeast mixture through the feed tube and
process until a dough ball forms. Continue
processing for 1 to 2 minutes to knead the
dough.
Lightly flour the top of the dough and remove
from bowl. Shape it into a smooth ball and
place in a 1-gallon sealable plastic bag.
Squeeze the air out and seal the bag. Let rise
in a warm place until it has doubled, about 1
to 2 hours.
Put the dough on a lightly floured table
and punch it down to release air. Let it rest
5 minutes. Stretch the dough into a large
square. Place the raisins and walnuts on top
and knead until fully incorporated, 2 to 4
minutes. Shape into a round loaf and place
on a cornmeal-dusted baking sheet or peel.
Cover lightly with oiled plastic wrap and
allow to rise until doubled, about 30 to 40
minutes.

deep, on the top of the loaf. Bake for 50 to
60 minutes, until bread sounds hollow when
tapped and measures 205°F when tested
with an instant read thermometer. Transfer to
a rack to cool.
