Kneading dough with a stand mixer is an excellent alternative to elbow grease.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Copycat-Cheesecake-Factory-Brown-Bread-FT24_278500_JR_1030_3.jpg?fit=700,1024"},{"@type":"HowToStep","name":"Let the dough rise","text":"Transfer the dough to a clean, lightly oiled bowl and cover.

Editor's Tip: Many factors control how long it takes for bread to rise, including the temperature of your kitchen, the freshness of your yeast, humidity and water temperature. It could take anywhere from one to three hours! The best way to know when the loaves are ready is when the dough looks puffed and springs back when pressed gently with a finger.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Copycat-Cheesecake-Factory-Brown-Bread-FT24_278500_JR_1030_6.jpg?fit=700,1024"},{"@type":"HowToStep","name":"Bake the loaves","text":"Uncover the loaves and bake for 25 to 35 minutes.

The loaves should sound hollow and look darker around the edges, particularly at the base. You can also use an instant-read thermometer; the loaves should reach an internal temperature of 190\u00b0.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Copycat-Cheesecake-Factory-Brown-Bread-FT24_278500_JR_1030_8.jpg?fit=700,1024"}],"recipeYield":"4 loaves","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Lauren Habermehl"}],"nutrition":{"@type":"NutritionInformation","calories":" 158 calories","fatContent":"1g fat (0 saturated fat)","cholesterolContent":"0 cholesterol","sodiumContent":"285mg sodium","carbohydrateContent":"34g carbohydrate (7g sugars","fiberContent":"2g fiber)","proteinContent":"5g protein."},"aggregateRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":4,"reviewCount":1,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5},"review":[{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2024-11-21","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"Pete747"},"reviewBody":"<p>\"How long will this last?\" Has anyone ever had a loaf of homemade bread last more than that first afternoon\/evening??? To make this recipe close to what has gained fame as \"The Chart House Restaurants Squaw Bread,\" take away 1\/4 cup each whole wheat and white (or bread) flour and substitute 1\/2 cup dark rye flour. Just remember that rye flours are stickier than other bread doughs. Rye had enough gluten, but if you keep adding flour to make it \"less sticky,\" your ball of dough will take over your kitchen AND dining room. Does the tapping hollow sound seem esoteric? Here's the rule about breads -- they're done when you can smell the bread aromas. This doesn't work for cookies, but cookie baking is subjective -- chewy and soft vs hard and crunchy. But remember that trick for your bread baking activities!
