Christmas Stollen, Maria's Way

Fri, 08 Sep 2006 19:04:08 -0400

Back in the 60's, we had a newly emigrated neighbor from Germany, who taught my DH how to make yeast bread--with THIS recipe. It has graced our Christmas morning table every year since--and 2 loaves hardly last for the next day. He usually makes them the week before and wraps in plastic wrap, puts in a plastic garbage bag, and freezes until Christmas Eve. Goes well with your favorite strata. -- posted by NurseJaney

Apple Raisin Bread

Wed, 01 Nov 2006 20:01:14 -0500

I really enjoy making bread in the colder months. This loaf is one that I have played with a lot and it works no matter what I do to it. I have added nuts, vanilla, cinnamon/ginger, changed the apples to dried cherries( non sugared). I have used applebutter in place of applesauce and trimmed down the honey. Well, you get the idea. 8" cake pans are the perfect thing for baking this bread. It will make 3 loaves. -- posted by Annacia

Ukrainian Old Fashioned Plum Yeast Varenyky (Perogies)

Sat, 04 Nov 2006 07:07:09 -0500

Here is a very old recipe for varenyky dough with yeast as a leavener. In some regions of Western Ukraine fruit varenyky are called "knedli," which is a Czech name for dumplings. This is a delicious dessert dish. Any fruit may be used as a filling, but plums are the easiest to shape. -- posted by Olga Drozd

Hutzelbrot, Black Forest Fruit Bread

Sat, 04 Nov 2006 09:11:31 -0500

This is so good! and it's perfect for the holidays. I had to use the Zaar converter for the amounts and it worked well. The bread turned out beautitully. With its spices and lots of dried fruit it is yummy and moist and keeps quite some time when you wrap it in tin-foil. This is the original recipe but I needed to add a bit of the water the fruit was cooked in. You might not need to. There was no fat ask for *grin*. -- posted by Annacia

Russian Rye Bread With Dried Cranberries

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 14:44:35 -0500

Optional but really tasty in this bread is nigella ( ni-JELL-uh ) also known as black onion seeds/kalonji/calonji/ habasoda/ketza/Better known as black caraway. This has a subtle flavor that's often used to enhance vegetable dishes. -- posted by ~Rita~

Blueberry Bread

Sun, 12 Nov 2006 13:20:27 -0500

This delicious sweet bread has frozen and dried blueberries in it! I do hope you can find dried blueberries because they are so good. If not try dried cranberries or raisins. Great cut fresh all by itself, spread some butter or cream cheese on it, toast it, bake into a great bread pudding or make some yummy blueberry French toast. -- posted by ~Rita~

Cinnamon-Apple Twist Bread

Sat, 16 Dec 2006 16:14:29 -0500

This is bread with a twist - literally. Rolling the filling inside a log of dough (like the start of cinnamon buns), then cutting that log in half and twisting it leaves the filling half in and half out, resulting in a lovely swirled appearance. -- posted by Annacia

Christmas Jewelled Cranberry and Walnut Bread: Bread Machine

Thu, 21 Dec 2006 16:34:16 -0500

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. -- posted by French Tart

No Knead Apple Raisin Bread

Mon, 01 Jan 2007 15:14:01 -0500

The secret to this dish is all in the preparation. It looks absolutely beautiful when you are finished and does NOT need a bread machine for those of us who don't own them. More raisins is always optional. I include the rising time in the cooking time since you are doing nothing. Also if you use self rising flour then omit the salt. -- posted by celestial_star03

Amsterdam Stol (Using Bread Machine)

Thu, 22 Feb 2007 23:07:42 -0500

Amsterdam stollen (or rather: stol) is just as traditionally connected to Christmas as its German counterpart, but is richer, more moist, and denser. Make sure that you use almond paste, not marzipan -- it is less sweet and a bit coarser than marzipan; if you can't find it, it is easily made yourself by grinding 150 g of blanched almonds with 150 g of sugar and one egg. The original recipe uses "bitterkoekjes", chewy Dutch almond biscuits, but as these are almost impossible to buy outside of the Netherlands I have replaced them with Amaretti. -- posted by Michael Keizer

Traditional Fruity and Spiced Hot Cross Buns: Bread-Maker

Fri, 06 Apr 2007 15:03:05 -0400

A wonderful old family recipe for HUGE and very light spiced Hot Cross Buns! I discovered that most of the hard work is taken out of making these, by proving & kneading them in the Bread Maker/Machine......unless you NEED to expel any frustrations, and then you MUST knead these yourself! You can make the crosses by either marking them before baking or, as I have done, by putting thinly rolled pastry crosses on top. An absolute "must" for the Spring and Easter Tea table! I also make these throughout the rest of the year - minus the crosses - for fruity, spiced English style teacakes! -- posted by French Tart

Polish/Czech Blueberry Buns

Tue, 22 May 2007 23:01:56 -0400

We went over for dinner at a Polish friend's house and they served these for dinner. They are fluffy, lightly sweetened buns of steamed dough filled with blueberries. When I investigated the recipe, all I could find was a Czech version. I tweaked it to be just like my Polish friend's recipe. I hope you like it! You need a steamer for this. This recipe looks wildy complicated, but it really isn't...just try it once- I could eat 10 of these things! -- posted by Codychop

Rustic Wheat Cinnamon Raisin Bread

Tue, 12 Jun 2007 18:30:38 -0400

I looked and looked for a cinnamon raisin bread with wheat flour that wasn't for the ABM and couldn't find one.... so I made my own! Makes a very large loaf or two small loaves. **NOTE** This recipe calls for instant yeast! If you use regular active yeast, you will need to adjust the amount of yeast, your dough will take longer to raise, the water temperature will need to be reduced and method of mixing should include proofing the yeast before adding it to the mixture. Both poor reviews came when reviewer used active yeast - I suggest only using instant yeast unless you are an experienced bread maker (I am not, thus why I use the instant yeast, its much more forgiving). -- posted by Brooke the Cook in WI

Old Fashioned Yeasted Banana Nut Bread

Fri, 22 Jun 2007 13:02:25 -0400

This is the first type of banana bread I ever ate actually, and it makes a fantastic stuffed peanut butter banana french toast! Found on the internet while I was pining for some real bready banana bread. Hope you enjoy it! -- posted by Chef #354339

Amy's Yummy Banana Bread (Bread Machine)

Wed, 19 Sep 2007 21:05:42 -0400

I developed this recipe initially through trial and error, and have now got it pretty well 'right'. My husband and in-laws love this! A few notes: you will need to keep an eye on the dough during mixing to make sure it isn't too wet. If it looks too wet, try adding 1 tbs of flour at a time until it looks like a rather wet ball of dough (it should be slightly wetter than ordinary bread dough). I also made this to be slightly more 'healthy' than other banana breads - so feel free to add a bit more butter if you feel the need to be decadent! EDIT: After one review, I realised that I should have said this is not intended to be a very sweet recipe; the main flavour should be the flavour of the banana. If you want to make it sweeter, use 1/2 cup of sugar, rather than the 1/4 cup specified. -- posted by Sooty_Cat

Use Your Pantry Staples Fruit and Nut Bread

Tue, 11 Dec 2007 16:20:26 -0500

I had made recipe#256262 for breakfast, and had about 1 1/2 cups of it left over. It was too delicious to throw away, so I put it in the fridge and decided to make bread from it. I think you could also use a lot of other ingredients instead of bulgur -- the point would be to include some combination of whole grains, dried fruits and nuts, then use bread flour rather than all-purpose, so that you can develop enough of the gluten to get a decent rise. The bulgur pudding I started with had been made with milk, honey, dates, dried apricots and spices, so those flavors contributed to my final bread. I then added dried cranberries, rolled oats, and sunflower seeds. Add whatever spices you like, or if you want, try my recipe#261857. -- posted by Susiecat too

Dreamy Decadent Orange Rolls

Wed, 30 Jan 2008 02:12:28 -0500

This uses a "sponge-method" sweet yeast dough and it rises three times: once in a near-liquid batter with about half the flour, once in a ball after kneading, and once in the final pan. A warm room will help tremendously with rising. The three hours includes rising and baking time. Juice of blood orange gives the frosting a unique color. -- posted by Lavender Lynn

A New England Holiday Bread With Olde World Roots

Mon, 25 Feb 2008 17:32:43 -0500

All the Celtic countries, with which the legendary King Arthur was associated, have a colorful bread filled with fruits and spices, traditionally made to celebrate festivals and holidays. In Scotland it's called "Selkirk Bannock," in northern Wales "Bara Brith," in Ireland "Barm Brack," and across the channel in Brittany (or Little Britain) "Morlaix Brioche." It was a simple dough, sweetened and loaded with hard-to-get sweetmeats and spices which were saved for special occasions. Choose from the Celtic or New England versions. The long prep time is 95% rising time. -- posted by Annacia

Glazed Orange Rolls

Mon, 10 Mar 2008 23:28:18 -0400

There is a really nice story behind this recipe. When I was 10 and in Girl Scouts we had a potluck and my mom brought these rolls. She had found the recipe in a newspaper clip-out. All the recipes/items brought were turned into a GS Cookbook for our region. When we received our cookbook - low and behold we were missing a few pages and of course this recipe was on those pages. It has taken me 30 years to find this recipe (well I did not search all 30 but it did take over a year of hard searching to find it). A man (no name ever given) from a community recipe group I belong shared this recipe after I posted again of my search. My mom is thrilled as it is the recipe she remembers and now I will have more than just the memory of these yummy rolls but also of the history that goes along with it. I probably would have forgotten that potluck dinner with the other Girl Scouts if it were not for this lost recipe that now has been found. I hope you too enjoy them and make special memories with your family and friends when you serve them. -- posted by HokiesLady

Banana-Blueberry Bread Machine Bread

Fri, 30 May 2008 02:09:01 -0400

This recipe is from "Better Homes and Gardens,Best Bread Machine recipes". I have made a LOT of bread, and this is at the top #1 spot on my list. And surprise! Its even better cold! I used ocean spray craisens in place of blueberries,They are cranberries that are cherry flavored. I also substituted 1/4 cup wheat gluten, and 1/4 cup milled flax seed for some of the flour, and used 2 Tablespoons sugar and the rest was splenda.I had some frozen banana so I used that. . (Those are my personal changes, to make it a little healthier.) For 2 pound loaf, your machine must hold 10 cups or more. This is for a 2 pound loaf of bread. Servings are a guess, since I had to list something. This loaf rises nice and high, so its a big sized loaf. Time is a guess as it doesn't take but minutes to throw it in the machine, and I didn't pay attention to the machine time, so the time is a guess . -- posted by blgpts

Rye Bread W/Dried Cranberries and Toasted Pecans (Bread Machine)

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 15:16:35 -0400

Dried cranberries and toasted pecans in rye bread -- lightly flavored with ground cinnamon and orange oil, or leave them out if you prefer! -- The bread smelled heavenly while baking in my oven! Delicious toasted with cream cheese -- makes great french toast, or equally good for turkey sandwiches! ---- Note: My bread machine does not have an "add beep" so I rough grind the pecans and cranberries in a mini-chopper, so all ingredients can be added to the bread machine all at once! -- posted by Kerfuffle-Upon-Wincle

Trail Mix Sourdough Bread

Wed, 05 Aug 2009 01:47:07 -0400

For this recipe I used a Kitchen Aide Mixer to mix and knead the dough. You can of course do it by hand or you can follow your bread machines instructions for Bread with Mix-ins. I have not tried using this recipe in a bread machine so I do not know what the outcome will be! I used 6 cups of flour, but you may need to adjust to make the dough just stiff enough to handle.Do not add to much flour. The prep time includes rising time. -- posted by Chef Jean

Swedish Apple Yeast Bread-Betty Crocker Recipe Cards

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:46:39 -0400

Betty Crocker Recipe Cards: Recipes Children Can Make/Card #15 It actually took a recipe that CHILDREN can make for me to achieve 100% success with the elusive yeast!!! I followed the recipe with a few exceptions (subbed cardamom for the cinnamon & bumped up the raisins). I held my breath while it was in the 'rising stage', popped it in the oven with a prayer...and out came the most beautiful, amazing, wonderful yeast bread!! This is NOT a quick bread taste and not overly sweet. However, it is cerainly sweet enough to satisfy oneself, especially with a hot cup of coffee. But wait! There's more! If you think it's good the 1st day, it is OUT OF THIS WORLD the second day!!! The yeast bread softens and the spices really are more pronounced; it was sublime heated at Medium in the microwave for a minute and then liberal amounts of fresh butter slathered on the cut edges. I plan to serve this for years to come: as an afternoon snack, for a delicious but not too sweet Brunch addition...or just because! But, I will intentionally make it the day before since the bread is one of those recipes that improves with age. -- posted by The_Swedish_Chef
