This homemade light rye bread recipe is perfect for bread machine enthusiasts looking for a flavorful and easy-to-make loaf.
Add the light beer and warm water to the bread machine pan.
Ensure the liquids are at room temperature for optimal yeast activation.
Add the rye flour, bread flour, salt, butter, brown sugar, molasses, and caraway seeds to the pan.
Layer the ingredients in the order recommended by your bread machine's manual.
Make a small well in the flour and add the dry yeast.
Avoid letting the yeast touch the liquids before mixing to prevent premature activation.
Select the 'Light Crust' setting on your bread machine and start the cycle.
Check the dough after a few minutes of mixing to ensure it forms a smooth ball. Adjust with water or flour if necessary.
Once the baking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread from the machine and let it cool on a wire rack for 1 hour before slicing.
Cooling the bread allows the crumb to set and makes slicing easier.
