    1/2 c Whole wheat flour (60 g)

    This no-knead dark pumpernickel bread has rich rye flavour and cocoa
    undertones, perfect for sandwiches and toast. It's so easy to make
    too!

    Log Shaping Method:

    Generously dust a work surface with rye flour. Turn out the dough (it
    will be very soft and sticky). Lightly dust the top and gently roll
    into a rough log shape. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

    Easier Pan Shaping Method:

    Simply scrape the dough into a lined or well-oiled loaf pan and
    smooth the top with wet or oiled hands.

    Pumpernickel Bread:

    Cover loosely and let rise for 40 minutes.

    Preheat the oven to 425?F (220?C). Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until
    the loaf is firm, deeply colored, and sounds hollow when tapped.
    Internal temperature should be about 200?F (93?C).

    Remove from the oven and cool completely on a rack before slicing.
    This bread sets as it cools and slices best once fully cooled.

    Add the warm water to the bowl of a food processor or a large mixing
    bowl. Add the rye flour, bread flour, whole wheat flour, unsweetened
    cocoa powder, instant dry yeast, brown sugar, salt, and vegetable oil.

    Food Processor Mixing Method):

    Pulse and then run the food processor just until a very soft, sticky
    dough forms and pulls away from the sides slightly. This takes about
    5 minutes.

    Optional Hand Mixing Method:

    Stir everything together with a sturdy spoon until no dry flour
    remains. The dough will be loose, sticky, and more like a thick paste
    than a kneadable dough.

    Cover tightly and let rise at room temperature for 1 hour 30 minutes,
    until visibly puffy and expanded. It will not double fully.
