Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 0.75 cup Dried cranberries (craisins)
Instructions
Add warm water, milk, butter, and honey to the bread machine pan.
Sprinkle salt and ground cinnamon evenly over the wet ingredients.
Add the all-purpose flour to the pan, covering the liquid completely.
Create a small well in the flour and add the instant yeast. Ensure the yeast does not touch the liquid.
Secure the bread machine pan in the machine and select the basic or sweet bread cycle (about 3 hours, depending on your machine). Choose the 1.5-pound loaf setting and desired crust color (light, medium, or dark).
When the machine beeps for additional ingredients (or at the beginning of the kneading cycle if your machine does not signal), add the dried cranberries.
Allow the bread machine to complete the cycle, including kneading, rising, and baking.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts.
Turn the loaf out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and serve plain, toasted, or with your favorite spread. Enjoy!
