A reliable rye loaf in a Panasonic breadmaker

I have played around with rye bread for ages, with varying success, but have finally found that this is reliable, delicious and easy to make in my breadmaker. Comes out right every time!

Ingredients

250g Shipton Mill Light Rye Flour

250g Shipton Mill Coarse Wholemeal Flour

2 Tbsps Oil

A pinch of salt

A good pinch of caraway seeds

A small handful of pumpkin seeds

415ml water

(I tend to mix all this before putting it in the breadmaker, because otherwise sometimes I find a patch of unmixed flour on the outside of my baked loaf)

2 tsps Allisons easy-bake yeast (or similar)

Method

This is baked on the Rye Bread setting on my machine which is a 3hr 30min programme.
