Swedish Limpu Bread Recipe

• 5½ cups All-purpose Flour
• 2 (0.25s ounce) packages Active Dry Yeast
• 2 cups Water
• ½ cup packed Brown Sugar
• 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
• 2 tsp Salt
• 2 tsp Orange Zest
• 1½ tsp Caraway Seeds
• 1½ tsp Fennel Seeds
• 2 Eggs
• 2 cups Rye Flour

• Take a saucepan and boil water in it along with sugar, oil, salt, orange rind, caraway seeds, and fennel seeds, for about 3 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let it cool down a bit.
• Take a bowl and mix 3 cups all-purpose flour and yeast in it properly.
• Add in the rest of the flour (2½ cups) and blend well.
• Now, stir this into the cooled mixture and blend it using a hand blender.
• Add eggs to this mixture and blend for 1 more minute.
• Transfer it to a bowl and add rye flour to make a stiff dough.
• Take out the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes, so that it turns smooth.
• Shape it into a ball and then place it in lightly greased bowl. Cover it with damp cloth and let it rise for about 2 hours.
• After 2 hours, divide it into half and make 2 balls. Let it rest for 10 more minutes and then shape it into 2 loaves.
• Place it in un-greased loaf pans and brush it with vegetable oil.
• Keep it for another 1 hour and then bake it at 400 degrees F for 30 to 35 minutes.
