Cherry Yogurt Bread Large Loaf Recipes

WHOLE WHEAT YOGURT BREAD

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in a bread machine and set on the dough setting.
• After a few minutes, check the dough. Is it clinging together and starting to form a ball? If not, add 1 Tablespoon of water and let go for a minute longer and check it again. Repeat as necessary.
• When the dough is ready, preheat the oven to 170 F, then turn it off. Put the bread in a bread pan, shaping the top of the loaf to be nicely rounded. Spray the top with cooking spray.
• Set the bread pan in the oven, cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise for 40 minutes or until the dough is nice and puffy. Gently pull the towel off of the bread (leaving the loaf in place in the oven) and close the oven. Set the oven to 350 F and bake for 45 minutes or so until the bread is nicely golden brown on top.

CHERRY-CHOCOLATE LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x4-inch loaf pan with 1 teaspoon butter and reserve.
• Whisk flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda together in a bowl.
• Cream 1/2 cup butter and sugar together in another bowl with a spatula or an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time with a whisk or an electric mixer, fully blending in the first egg before adding the next. Stir in yogurt and vanilla extract.
• Chop pitted cherries coarsely with a knife, or by pulsing on and off a few times in a food processor. Add to the wet ingredients along with the chocolate chunks and chopped walnuts. Stir briefly to combine. Batter may look curdled, but don't worry.
• Pour in the flour mixture and mix with a spatula until all the flour has disappeared. Transfer batter into the prepared loaf pan, making sure to smooth the top evenly and fill in the corners. Tap pan on the counter to release any air pockets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until nicely browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let bread rest in the pan for 15 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
• While bread is resting, combine powdered sugar and milk in a bowl for icing, adding more milk as needed to reach a thin, runny consistency.
• Brush icing over loaf, allowing to drip down the sides. Let cool completely before slicing and serving, about 20 minutes more.

EASY YOGURT BREAD

Steps:

• Pour the water into the bowl of a stand mixer, if you have one. Don't worry if you don't, just use a large mixing bowl. Add the yeast and swirl to dissolve.
• Add the yogurt and mix into the water, then add the flour and salt. If using a stand mixer, mix using the dough hook on a low speed for about 5 minutes, until smooth and stretchy.If you're not using a stand mixer, mix with your hand in the bowl until the dough has come together, then turn out and knead on the work surface until it has become a smooth, pliable, stretchy dough. This will take about 8 to 10 minutes.
• If kneading by hand put the dough back in the bowl then cover with cling film (or a plastic shower cap) and leave to prove until doubled in size (in a warm place for about 35 mins)
• Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface. Butter a 1lb loaf tin - I find that butter works much better than oil and the loaf comes out of the tin much easier. Fold the dough into thirds, and then roll into a tube as long as the loaf tin.
• Cover again with the shower cap (if you have one), pulling it up to give the dough space to rise. If you don't have a shower cap, place the tin in a plastic bag and tie shut. Place the tin in the warm location used in step three above.
• After about 15 minutes rising time, heat the oven to GM7 / 220C / 425F. Leave the dough to rise for about a further 15 to 20 minutes, until it's just springing back when pressed.
• Bake for about 35 minutes.
• When it is done it should turn out of the tin and sound hollow when tapped. It always takes longer to bake than you think it will, so my general rule of thumb is that if you are unsure give it another 5 mins.

CHERRY YOGURT BREAD (LARGE LOAF)

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in the order given into your bread machine.
• Set for regular or rapid bake cycle.

CHERRY LIME BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar together. Add eggs, one at a time. Beat in vanilla. Add vlour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and lime zest. Slowly beat in sour cream.
• Grease two 9inch loaf pans generously. Spoon over half the batter evenly to each pan. Divide pie filling evenly between pans, spooning it over the batter. Top with the remaining bread batter. It's okay if it doesn't cover the cherry filling completely.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 60-70 minutes. Remove and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Then remove from pan and cool completely before adding glaze.
• For the glaze, whisk the powdered sugar with lime juice until smooth. Pour over tops of bread. In a small bowl, combine the lime zest with granulated sugar until crumbly. Sprinkle over glaze. Allow to set about 15-20 minutes before wrapping. ENJOY.
