Mixed bread for tray and mold

Sift both types of flour and mix with sugar and salt. I crumble in the yeast evenly without dissolving it. Then add the lukewarm water. Mix the mixture thoroughly and knead with the dough hook of a hand mixer for 5 minutes on speed 1 until you have a smooth dough. Place the dough in a bowl and let it rest, covered and without drafts, in a warm place for about 1 1/2 hours. The dough should at least double in size. Place the bread dough in the oven, either in the pan or by hand. Bake in an electric oven at 200°C for about 1 hour. The bread is done when it pulls away from the sides of the pan or is nicely browned. I still test the bread with a wooden skewer towards the end of the baking time. If the wooden skewer stays dry, the bread is baked through. Tip: A container of water in the oven ensures moisture inside the oven. I always fill the baking tray 3/4 full with water and place it on the first rack of the oven. Before baking, cut the bread 3-4 times across. Brush the surface with water before and after baking.
