Step 1
Mix rye, all-purpose, and whole wheat flours with caraway seeds in a bowl.
Step 2
Stir in molasses, yeast, salt, and 1 cup warm water until a shaggy dough forms.
Step 3
Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Step 4
Shape the dough into a round loaf on a floured surface. Dust the top with rye flour.
Step 5
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 450°F for 25 minutes until golden and hollow-sounding when tapped.
Step 6
Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Slice and serve warm with butter or as a side.
