APPLE CINNAMON RAISIN PITAS (BREAD MACHINE)



Apple Cinnamon Raisin Pitas (Bread Machine) image

I used to buy these breakfast "pitas" from the grocery store, but figured out how to make them at home - for a heck of alot less. They're more like small, flatbreads, and I slice them in half, toast them, and spread them with peanut butter, honey, or jam. Yum! They're not very sweet, as there isn't much sugar in them.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 3h10m

Yield 12 pitas, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups bread flour or 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon dry yeast
1 1/4 cups warm water (120-130F degrees)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar or 1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup apple, chopped
1 cup raisins

Steps:

  • 1. Place ingredients except apples and raisins in bread machine in order that your machine specifies.
  • 2. Set to "dough" setting and allow to complete cycle, adding the apples and raisins when your machine alerts you to add nuts/fruit. I actually have found that kneading these in by hand is actually easier, as they're a bit finicky to get worked through the dough.
  • 3. Separate into 10 balls. Press each ball into a 4" round with your hands - you'll likely need to stuff some raisins and apples back in - it's worth it. Place on nonstick cookie sheets and allow to rise for 30 minutes.
  • 4. Preheat oven to 500. Flip rounds, then place in oven for 5 minutes, flip again; turn oven down to 350 and bake for 15-20 minutes longer, until cooked through.
  • 5. Remove from pan onto clean towel and cover while cooling.

EASY CINNAMON APPLE RAISIN BREAD



Easy Cinnamon Apple Raisin Bread image

This is an easy and delicious bread to prepare. Even better you only need one mixing bowl because you can throw all of the ingredients right in! Feel free to tweak the ingredients to your liking...add more cinnamon...add nuts, etc. I hope you enjoy it! Edited: I have also tried out the bread by using 1/2 whole wheat pastry flour and 1/2 regular flour, a tbl of wheat germ and less sugar to make it a tiny bit "healthier". It came out just as nice as the original.

CINNAMON RAISIN AND APPLE BREAD (ABM / MACHINE)



Cinnamon Raisin and Apple Bread (Abm / Machine) image

This is the nicest spicy fruit loaf I ever made. It is wonderfully moist and really scrumptious! (I make a fruit loaf of one sort or another every other day, and change things a bit from time to time. This is my absolute favourite combination). A note regarding my ingredients - my dried raisins and peel are really quite dry so I increase the water to about 244g (about an extra 3/4 tsp). This means I deliberately make it with the dough looking like it's way too wet during kneading, but the very dry fruit soaks up the excess water. My loaves work out fine despite looking over-moist to start with. I've found through experience that for any bread that will have dried ingredients added late in the kneading process it can be necessary to adjust the water quantity subtly according to how dried the fruit/grains etc are. I use part margarine part butter to reduce fat content slightly. No reason really not to use all butter instead. Butter is nicer :) Makes a loaf of approx 1 1/2 lbs.

Time 1h

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

240 ml water (at Room Temperature)
350 g white bread flour
1/4 teaspoon vitamin C powder (a flour improver, required if using the wheat bran)
5 g salt (1 TSP, I use 'Lo-Salt')
8 g firm margarine
5 g butter
13 g nonfat dry milk powder (1 1/2 TBLSP approx.)
4 g wheat bran (2 TSP, very heaped)
18 g demerara sugar (1 TBLSP, Brown sugar, basically)
3 1/4 g bread machine yeast
100 g dried seedless raisins
16 g dried mixed citrus peels (2 TSP Heaped)
4 g ground cinnamon (1 TSP heaped)
1 dash nutmeg, to taste (freshly grated)
1 pinch ground cardamom, next to nothing
40 g apples (peeled & chopped into 1/3 inch chunks)
4 g ground cinnamon, mixed with the apple (1 TSP heaped)

Steps:

  • Remove pan from bread machine and place on electronic scales and zero them.
  • Pour in the water (240ml water weighs 240 grams) and weigh in the rest of the dough ingredients in order.
  • Replace the pan in the bread machine and start machine on a raisin or equivalent 'speciality' setting. I prefer 'normal' crust for this.
  • In small bowl weigh the raisins and dried mixed citrus peel. Add the spices and mix together.
  • Into a second small bowl, peel about 1/3 of an average size eating apple (I usually have Braeburn apples handy but pretty much any apple is fine except the tasteless ones like Golden Delicious and Gala). Chop into small chunks somewhere between roughly 1/4 and 1/3 inch in size. Once in the bowl, sprinkle with another teaspoon of ground cinnamon and stir with spoon to cover the bits well (to take the moistness off the sides of apple bits so they mix in better).
  • Add dried fruit & spice mix at 4 minutes before end of final kneading or at the beep if you trust your machine not to mash the fruit like mine always does. (My LG machine beeps nine minutes before end of final kneading which is far too soon - it can reduce dried fruit to the size of grains of sugar during that time!).
  • If you trust your machine not to mash the apple then you could maybe add it a minute or so before kneading finishes. I don't trust mine in the slightest so here's what I do --
  • Wash hands in very cold water and dry well just before the final kneading completes then --.
  • -- when kneading has completed, quickly add the chopped apple and quickly mix it well by hand. (Shouldn't need to remove pan from bread machine to do this (unless it's in an awkward place! :).
  • Slightly more stuff to do for this loaf than usual, but it's absolutely worth it!

With varying recipes, bread machines can make different types of bread, including fruits, nuts, and whole-grain bread. One such bread is the apple cinnamon raisin pita bread machine recipe.

The Pita Bread

Pita bread is a Middle Eastern staple made from flour, yeast, salt, and water.

When it comes to making apple cinnamon raisin pitas bread machine recipes, there are a few valuable tips that you need to keep in mind. These tips can help you to achieve the perfect texture, flavor, and rise of your bread. In this article, we will discuss some of the most important tips that you need to consider when making apple cinnamon raisin pitas bread machine recipes.
Tip #1: Use the Right Flour
One of the most important aspects of making good bread, whether by hand or in a bread machine, is using the right kind of flour. For apple cinnamon raisin pitas, you need to use bread flour or all-purpose flour. These flours contain enough gluten, which is necessary for the bread to rise properly. You should avoid using cake flour or self-rising flour, as these contain less gluten and won't give you the same results.
Tip #2: Choose the Right Yeast
Another important element of bread baking is the type of yeast you use. For apple cinnamon raisin pitas, you can use active dry yeast or instant yeast. However, instant yeast is the better option, as it does not need to be activated before using. If you use active dry yeast, you will have to activate it by dissolving it in warm water before adding it to the other ingredients.
Tip #3: Use Fresh Ingredients
When making apple cinnamon raisin pitas, it is important to use fresh ingredients. This includes the apples, raisins, and cinnamon. These ingredients should be fresh and not past their expiration date or stale. Using fresh ingredients will ensure that your bread has the best possible flavor and texture.
Tip #4: Don't Overdo the Mix
One of the biggest mistakes people make when using a bread machine is overmixing the dough. Overmixing can lead to tough bread that does not rise properly. To avoid this, mix your ingredients until they are just combined. This means that you should mix them until there are no dry spots left, but you should not continue to mix beyond that point.
Tip #5: Add Volume with Applesauce
To add more volume to your apple cinnamon raisin pitas, you can use applesauce instead of some of the liquid in your recipe. Applesauce will add moisture and help your bread to rise better. You can substitute up to half of the liquid in your recipe with applesauce.
Tip #6: Use Brown Sugar
Brown sugar is the best choice for apple cinnamon raisin pitas recipes as it adds a slightly caramelized flavor that white sugar does not. The brown sugar also adds moisture and helps to keep the bread soft.
Tip #7: Use the Right Setting
If you are using a bread machine to make your apple cinnamon raisin pitas, it is important to use the correct setting. The dough setting is generally the best choice, as it allows the dough to rise before baking. However, if your bread machine has a sweet bread or fruit bread setting, you can use that instead.
Tip #8: Be Patient
Bread making requires patience, and the same goes for apple cinnamon raisin pitas. You need to give your bread enough time to rise properly. This means that you should not rush the rising process by turning up the heat or opening the lid to check on the bread too often. Follow the recipe instructions and allow enough time for the dough to rise before baking.
Tip #9: Let it Cool
Once your apple cinnamon raisin pitas are done, it is important to let them cool before slicing them. Cutting the bread too soon can cause it to become gummy or doughy. Let the bread cool in the bread machine for at least 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tip #10: Store Properly
To keep your apple cinnamon raisin pitas fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for up to three to four days. You can also freeze the bread for up to three months. To defrost, simply leave the bread at room temperature for a few hours before serving.

Conclusion

If you follow these valuable tips when making apple cinnamon raisin pitas bread machine recipes, you will be able to achieve excellent results every time. Remember to use the right flour and yeast, don't overmix, add volume with applesauce, and use brown sugar. Also, be patient, let the bread cool before slicing, and store it properly afterwards. With these tips in mind, you can enjoy delicious and fresh apple cinnamon raisin pitas any time.
