jam bread

If the bread in the photograph above looks a bit purple to you, it is because I used blueberry and banana jam in the bread dough.

Although most of the jam was blended into the bread dough, there were small bits and pieces of blueberries that were still visible in the finished product.

INGREDIENTS

325 ml water
1 1/3 tsp salt
1 1/3 tsp castor sugar
2/3 cup jam
2 2/3 cup bread flour
1 13 cup wheat flour
2 1/2 tsp instant dry yeast

METHOD

1. Place all the ingredients except the bread flour, wheat flour and yeast in the bucket of the breadmaker machine.

2. Add the bread flour and wheat flour, making sure that the wet ingredients are totally covered.

3. Add the yeast.

4. Place the bucket in the breadmaker machine and set to "dough" cycle. Start the cycle.

5. When the dough cycle has been completed, turn the dough onto a floured board. With floured hands, knead the dough for another 5 minutes.

6. Place the dough in a 8" x 5" loaf pan that has been greased and lined with baking paper.

7. Bake in an oven preheated to 175 degrees celsius for 55 minutes.

8. Let the bread cool thoroughly before slicing.
