I am going to develop health problems by the end of the COVID-19 lockdown. I got my 1lb of yeast. Well, 3 packs were $10. 1 lb. was $18. Why not? Considering Amazon is backordered until May in many stores and the local stores seem to be out… I may just be the corner dealer. Man – what-chu-got? Yea-st. No? Ok then.
Another tweaked recipe that I found on Pinterest. I was aiming for denser and sweeter than the original recipe. Maybe I will make some frosting as well. Not sure yet. Regardless, I used the Sweet setting and 1.5 lb. loaf setting. I added the liquids, then dry ingredients. I made a pocket in the corner and put the yeast in. It ended up much more dense (in a good way – like homemade bread often does) than I expected. It was a smaller loaf so there is a lot of room to tweak things to get the bread lighter and fluffier (add an egg or yeast). The results were much more homemade-bread-like. A little more dense and heavier but not a loaf of dough. Slather some butter and it has the sweet salty appeal. You could always switch up the craisins to raisins or reduce the amount if this bread looks too fruity for you. Regardless, I think this one is a keeper.
Ingredients:
- 1 c. room temperature milk (subbed for water)
- 3 tbs. margarine/butter (added 1 tbs.)
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 3 c. flour
- 4 tbs. sugar (added 1 tsp.)
- 3 tsp. ground cinnamon (added 1 tsp)
- 2 1/2 tsp. active/dry yeast
- 1 1/4 c. craisins (added 1/4 non packed)
- 2 tsp. brown sugar ( added 2 tsp.)
