Spiced fruit loaf
Using the breadmaker and Gluten Free Goodies Bread mix
To make a good spiced fruit loaf, the recipe involves a little extra sugar and is cooked on a different setting, at least in the Breville Bakers oven. Probably most other breadmaker machines have similar facilities.
In the Breville, use the Sweet Bread setting (option 6) and set to dark crust. This will give a total cooking time of 3 hours 33 minutes, and differs from a normal bread setting by using longer rising times and a lower cooking temperature. The main virtue of this is that it avoids the rather acid and unpleasant ‘burnt fruit’ taste that can otherwise develop if a standard bread setting is used.
Please note that the recipe does not use a full bag of bread mix! The slow rise coupled with extra sugar means that the yeast works more enthusiastically and we spent a lot of time scraping mixture off the breadmaker element when I tried a full 730g mix. Spiced Fruit Loaf
- 560g Gluten Free Goodies bread mix
- 3/4 tsp active dried yeast
- 1 1/2 tbsp sugar
- 1 1/2 tbsp mixed spice (yes, tablespoons!)
- 425ml water at blood heat
- 2 tbsp plus 1 tsp (35ml total) olive oil or other cooking oil
- 1 tsp cider vinegar
- 3 eggs (from the fridge)
- 1 cup mixed dried fruit ( I used 1/2 cup sultanas, 1/4 cup currants and 1/4 cup mixed peel)
Combine flour, yeast, sugar and spice and mix well.
Whisk together the eggs, water, vinegar and oil, then pour into the dry mix.
Blend well and place in breadmaker pan.
Bake on sweet bread setting, dark crust, adding the fruit when indicated by the beeps on the Breville Bakers Oven, or at whatever appropriate interval is suggested for your breadmaker.
When cooked, remove from pan immediately and wrap in a clean teatowel until cooled.
Slice and freeze if not using immediately. Very nice toasted from frozen.
