Title: Heartland Raisin Nut Bread Categories: Breads Yield: 14 Servings 1 c Water; plus 2 tablespoons 1 lg Egg 1 ts Lemon juice 1 ts Lecithin; liquid or granules 2 1/2 c Unbleached flour 1/2 c Whole-wheat flour 3 tb Wheat germ; toasted 2 tb Wheat germ; raw 1/4 c Rolled oats 1 1/2 ts Salt 1 tb Dark brown sugar 4 tb Nonfat dry milk 3 tb Vital wheat gluten 2 tb Whey 1 tb Unsalted butter 2 1/4 ts Active dry yeast 6 tb Seedless raisins 6 tb Golden raisins 1/3 c Walnuts; toasted Have all ingredients at room temperature. Toast walnuts just briefly in a moderately hot oven, just until they begin to give off their aroma. Let cool, then rub off papery husks & break into pieces or chop coarsely. All all ingredients EXCEPT raisins & nuts to the bread pan in the order given; if your bread machine specifies dry ingredients first, reverse the order. Set the machine on basic cycle, medium crust. At the beep, add the raisins & nuts. If larger pieces of raisins & nuts are desired in the final loaf, reserve about half of the total to add 2-3 minutes after the beep, but make sure to allow enough time in the kneading to cycle for the final batch of raisins & nuts to be worked into the dough. Do NOT use a programmable timer, as this bread contains perishable ingredients. Adapted from recipe in _The Ultimate Bread Machine Book_ by Tom Lacalamita. |
