Instructions
Step 1: Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar.
Step 2: Add Wet Ingredients
- Add the warm water, milk, cottage cheese, egg, and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.
Step 3: Knead the Dough
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Step 4: First Rise

Step 6: Bake
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the bread for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
