Ooh PP that looks lush
One of our faves is an Apple Braid,looks quite posh, til the kids see it :rolleyes: so perfect for guests.I'll put in the large recipe as it is great for freezing too.
Dough.
1 sachet yeast
15 oz strong bread flour
3/4 tsp salt
4 tbspn sugar (less if wanted)
4 1/2 tbspn butter
2 eggs
6 fl oz milk
I find this comes out a bit on the sticky side sometimes so you may need a bit of extra flour to hand *I make this up in my MR haven't tried it in the Panny yet!*
Set for white bread dough..
Filling.
2 eating apples
1 1/2 tsp plain flour
2 tbspn sugar
3/4 tspn cinammon
34 tspn lemon juice
3 tbspns sultanas
Peel,core and chop apples into small pieces toss with the remaining ingredients.
Roll out dough to 1/3 inch thick rectangle shape.Mark lightly from top to bottom into thirds without cutting!! On the outer thirds make diagonal cuts about 1 inch wide.
Place the filling down the centre of the dough then plait the dough over the top.
Cover loosely and rise for 30 mins then bake for approx 30 mins til golden brown.Gas mark 4/180 c/350 f
You know I'm going to have to make one of these now tomorrow :rotfl:

you can also put things in at the mixing stage.. I've done a sort of garlicy herby bread this way (good for a dieter as there's very little butter involved).. I make up a batch of dough as i normally do (recipe here) with a little butter/vegoil in the mix.. once the butter's in i add some garlic powder (carefully as its strong stuff!), mixed herbs, grated parmesan and snipped sundried tomatoes, then add water and rise twice as normal.. after the first proving i make small rolls out of them, which are easy to tear apart. Great for dunking into soups, especially italian type ones like minestrone.
i have to say though, reading through this thread a) made me hungry and b) made me want to rush into the kitchen to experiment!! (and as it happens i have a batch of dough on its first prooving now.. ooooooooh ... shall i make one loaf and experiment with the other..?
thanks!! (I think!) :rotfl:

I was searching for this thread for ages, so I'm really pleased to see it ressurected.
I added some left over mash to my usual bread recipe in the bread maker. There is a Nigella recipe for potatoe bread so I was curious to see if a version could be made in the bm. It turned out really well, it wasn't heavy, which is what I expected and made really nice toast. I did have to add a bit more flour and I kept a close eye on it while it was mixing.
I'm pretty chuffed as we always have left over potatoe, which I usually end up chucking away.0 -
wow great ideas!
I have never just made dough in the breadmaker just always made a full loaf but I shall try the dough setting, I lov ethe sound of the dough balls rolled in the cinnamon0 -

I have to keep resurrecting this thread and again give thanks to thriftlady (and latterly D&DD) for getting me to make proper, edible, soft bread.
I 've been experimenting, and made onion spirals. Regular white dough, rolled to a rectangle. While it was proving, I caramelised thinly sliced onions with garlic and Worcester sauce. I then covered the dough with onions and rolled the lot up. Cut slices, stood them on end and allowed to rise again. Brushed with olive oil before baking. We ate them with minestrone soup.
