almond marmalade bread

I have one word for this bread - yummy!

The texture of the bread is soft and there is a hint of taste of orange marmalade. The bread is delicious eaten on its own or with peanut butter spread on it.

To add a little crunch to the bread, I included almond flakes during the preparation process.

INGREDIENTS

1 cup warm water
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tbsp butter (softened)
2 1/2 tbsp instant potato flakes
1 1/2 tbsp castor sugar
1/2 cup orange marmalade
3 cups bread flour
2 tsp instant dry yeast
1/4 cup almond flakes

METHOD

1. Place all the ingredients (except the bread flour, yeast and almond flakes) in the bucket of the breadmaker machine.

2. Add the bread 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. Five minutes into the dough cycle, open the lid of the breadmaker machine and add the almond flakes without stopping the cycle. Replace the lid and let the cycle continue.

6. When the cycle has been done, turn the dough onto a floured board. Using floured hands, knead the dough 5 times.

7. Place the dough in a loaf pan that has been greased and lined with baking paper. Spread out the dough such that the dough touches the sides of the loaf pan.

8. Cover the loaf pan with a dry cloth and leave for 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.

9. Bake at 180 degrees celsius for 30 minutes.
