Russian Black Bread
- 2 1/2 teaspoons yeast
- 1 cup rye flour
- 1 1/2 cups of unbleached white flour
- 1/2 cup of oat bran
- 1 teaspoon of brown rice syrup
- 1 teaspoon pf salt

- 1 teaspoon of minced dried onion or 1/2 small raw onion, finely chopped

Place all ingredients in a bread machine. Use dough setting. At the end of the dough cycle, remove the dough to a non-stick bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set the dough in a warm, draft-free place to rise until nearly doubled in bulk. This may take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours.
Prepare a baking sheet or loaf pan, sprinkle with cornmeal. Punch down the dough and on a floured board, shape it into either a loaf or dome. Let the bread rise once again until almost doubled in bulk.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bake for 15 minutes at 375 degrees F and then lower the oven to 350 degrees F and bake an additional 30 minutes, or until the bottom sounds hollow when tapped.
