Cranberry Sweet Bread


Wasn’t feeling well over the weekend. Was told to avoid consuming rice, that bread would be best.

Was trying to ‘cheer’ myself up with a simple and soft tasty homemade bread. Actually wanted something crusty but couldn't remember the recipe.

Ingredients
1 tsp yeast
480g flour
2 tbsp milk powder
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon (or other spices if you prefer)
250g water
1 tsp salt
80g fruits/nuts (more if you prefer)

Method
  1. Mix and knead all ingredients in the bread machine (except for salt and fruits/nuts).

  2. After 5 min, add in salt and continue to knead for another 15 min before adding in the fruits/nuts.

  3. Rest covered dough for 1 hour. Knead lightly before shaping them into desired shape.


  4. Proof dough for another 1.5 hours or until double in volume.

  5. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 190 degrees for 35-40 min.


    Great with a spot of butter/ jam!

    Btw, reason for the upside down bread was because I forgot to adjust the settling back and left the grill on so the tops were slightly burned!! Still good since the baked bread was so tall.



    Don't believe me??? See the blacken tops, what a waste but still good ha ha ha
