FINNISH COFFEE BREAD (TRADITIONAL)



Finnish Coffee Bread (Traditional) image

Originally this recipe was printed in the Finnish Cookbook but I have been making it every year for Christmas breakfast. Although it is time consuming with three rises this recipe makes three coffee braids, so there is always one for the freezer and to share with friends. Prep time includes approximate rising time.

Time 4h30m

Yield 3 coffee braids

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast (original recipe specifies one package but I use 2)
1/2 cup lukewarm water
2 cups milk, scalded and cooled to lukewarm
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
8 -12 cardamom pods, seeded and crushed, depending on how strong a cardamom flavor you like (I use 10-12)
5 eggs, beaten, divided (1 egg is used for glaze)
8 -10 cups flour
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, melted
1/4 cup sugar, for glazing braids (or less)

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large bowl.
  • Stir in milk, sugar, salt, cardamom, 4 eggs, and 2 cups of flour.
  • Stir until dough is smooth.
  • Add 3 cups of flour and stir well.
  • Stir in melted butter or margarine.
  • Stir in 2-3 cups more flour or until you have a stiff dough.
  • Turn dough out onto a floured bread board and cover with inverted bowl.
  • Let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Knead dough until smooth and satiny (8-10 minutes).
  • Place dough in large lightly greased bowl, turning to grease top.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and/or towel.
  • Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled (1-2 hours).
  • Punch dough down.
  • Let dough rise again until almost double (30 minutes- 1 hour).
  • Turn out onto floured board.
  • Divide dough into thirds, working with only one third at a time.
  • Divide (one- third of dough) into three parts.
  • With your hands roll each part into one 18"strand.
  • Braid the three stands together to form one braid, tucking ends under.
  • Place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
  • Let rise 20-30 minutes until puffy.
  • Repeat with other two parts (each one-third of original dough).
  • You will have three braids when finished.
  • Brush braids with beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar.

FINNISH "COFFEE BREAD" FOR THE BREAD MACHINE



Finnish

My mother gave me a recipe for this, but I just now found the same ingredients, only for one loaf in the bread machine. Perfect!

Provided by Randi Lerch

Categories     Sweet Breads

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 c bread flour
1 1/3 c milk, room temperature
1/2 c sugar
1/3 c butter, softened
1/4 c lukewarm water
2 eggs
2 tsp active dry yeast
1 tsp ground cardamom (or more, to taste)
1/2 tsp salt
1 c raisins, soaked in warm water to plump (discard water & dry off)

Steps:

  • 1. This recipe is for the bread machine. I have the "Breadman Ultimate" machine, used for this recipe. Add the yeast to the warm water. Stir until dissolved. Add milk and stir. In a separate bowl, beat one of the eggs with the sugar. Stir in the yeast mixture, salt and cardamom. Pour all this into the bread machine.
  • 2. Add the flour. Pour your raisins into the "Extras" compartment. Set your machine on the "Fruit and Nut" setting for a 2 lb. loaf with Extras. Crust setting should be Medium. Turn machine on. Watch as it mixes. You will probably have to add more flour because the dough will be a bit runny. Add enough flour to make it a little thicker than cake batter consistency. It will not form a ball around the paddle!
  • 3. Beat the other egg and brush the loaf with this mixture when it comes out of the machine. You may sprinkle some sugar over the top also, if you wish. Serve with butter, jam, honey - your preference. Enjoy.
