Apple Raisin bread

Apple Raisin bread



I was happy with my braided bread, but wanted to find a way to make it more exciting. I decided on a sweet bread that would be good for breakfast, since it seemed to be my turn at work to bring in something fun to snack on and everyone there enjoys their morning toast. I decided on a apple raisin sweet bread.


Once again, I relied on my bread machine to make the dough.

Definitely happy with the recipe – a tasty breakfast or desert bread and a recipe that will be repeated.

Apple raisin sweet bread

Ingredients:
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3 cups bread flour
2 1/2 teaspoons yeast
1/2 apple, diced
1/4 cup raisins

Using dough mode on the bread machine, I put all the ingredients in with the exception of the raisins and the apple pieces. I added the raisins when the bread machine beeped to signal it was time to add heavy ingredients. After the dough was finished, put the dough on onto a floured surface and kneaded in the apple pieces. However, I would let the bread machine work them into the dough as well, as by this point it seemed difficult to get them completely worked in. I divided the dough into three pieces, rolled each piece into a long thin baguette style piece, then braided all three pieces together. The dough was quite heavy so I allowed it to rise for 2 hours, which I think was necessary as it doubled by more than double its original size.

Once risen, brush an egg wash on the dough, then baked it at 190C for 30 minutes.
