Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 (2-1/4 tsp.) envelope Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Instant Yeast
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablepoons butter OR margarine
  • 1 cup shredded unpeeled zucchini
  • 3 tablespoon chives
  • 3 to 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

  1. Combine whole wheat flour, sugar, salt and yeast in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Mix sour cream, water and butter in a saucepan or microwave-safe bowl; heat or microwave until very warm (120° to 130°F). Gradually add to yeast mixture and beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add zucchini, chives and 1/2 cup all- purpose flour; beat at high speed 2 minutes. Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour to make a soft dough.
  3. Turn out onto a lightly floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover dough and let rest 10 minutes.
  4. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces. Roll each into a 12-inch long, thick rope. Braid the 3 ropes together, pinching ends to seal. Place in a well greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Cover; let rise in a warm draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
  5. Bake at 375° F for 25 minutes. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack.
