Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Water
- 0.25 cup Orange juice
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1.5 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 0.75 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.25 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Add the water, orange juice, unsalted butter, and honey to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Measure and add the all-purpose flour, salt, and ground cinnamon on top of the wet ingredients, covering them evenly.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast. Ensure it does not touch the liquids.
Place the bread machine pan into the machine and select the 'Sweet Bread' or 'Basic Bread' cycle, with your desired crust setting (light, medium, or dark).
Once the bread machine beeps to signal it's time for additional ingredients, add the dried cranberries and optional chopped walnuts.
Allow the bread machine to complete the cycle, including kneading, rising, and baking, which typically takes about 2.5 to 3 hours.
When the bread is finished baking, carefully remove the pan using an oven mitt. Let the bread sit in the pan for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.
