Christmas Jewelled Cranberry and Walnut Bread: Bread Machine image

A wonderful bread made in the bread machine for any time of the year - but it is especially delicious on Christmas Morning, and throughout the festive period. I always make my famous "The Day after Christmas Sarnies" - Sandwiches - with this bread! (That recipe is also posted on RecipeZaar) I find it difficult to get hold of fresh cranberries where I live, so this recipe uses dried cranberries, but I am sure it would work equally as well with fresh ones too.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 2h30m

Yield 12-14 slices, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

360 ml tepid water
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
3 teaspoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons nonfat dry milk powder
570 g strong white bread flour
7 g dried yeast
100 g dried cranberries
50 g walnut pieces

Steps:

  • Place all the ingredients, EXCEPT the walnuts & the dried cranberries, into your breadmaker in the suggested order; mine is wet first, then dry & then the yeast last.
  • Put the walnut pieces & dried cranberries into the Extras tray - if your breadmaker does not have an Extras tray, add them manually in the last knead.
  • (Also, if your breadmaker's slot for Extras is small, add some of them by hand when the Extras tray opens!).
  • Bake on White 2lb Rapid Medium crust OR White 2lb Normal Medium crust with the Extras setting if your bread maker has it.
  • When the bread has finished baking, remove from the breadmaker carefully, with oven gloves, and allow to cool on a cooling rack.
  • Remove the paddle BEFORE slicing, if it has remained in the bread.
  • Great with: Cold Meats, Cheeses, Salads & Cream Cheese and also made up as my famous Christmas Sarnie(Sandwich)!
