Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Active dry yeast
  • 1 1/3 cup Bread flour
  • 2/3 cup Whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup Wheat bran
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
  • 1 cup Sourdough starter
  • 1/3 cup Warm water
  • 1/2 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
Directions
  1. 1
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and active dry yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. 2
    Stir in the sourdough starter, vegetable oil, brown sugar, and salt until well combined.
  3. 3
    Add the bread flour, whole wheat flour, and wheat bran. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. 4
    Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. 5
    During the last minute of kneading, fold in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  6. 6
    Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap.
  7. 7
    Let rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  8. 8
    Punch down the dough to release air bubbles. Shape into a loaf and place in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  9. 9
    Cover and let rise again for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the dough crests the top of the pan.
  10. 10
    Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
  11. 11
    Bake for 35-45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  12. 12
    Remove from the pan and cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
