During the endless development and testing process, I’ve come up with a
bread that’s just wonderful, especially with coffee on a cold winter
morning. Hope you enjoy it:
Add all the ingredients to the machine according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Bake on a “light” or “sweet bread” cycle
Note:
I’ve used the timer cycle as long as eight hours in advance, but I wouldn’t
want to go much longer than that because of the eggs.
The sugar in sweet breads tends to make the bread get very brown and
sometimes even burn on a standard bread machine cycle, so if you don’t have
a “sweet bread” cycle on your machine, either bake this on light, or stop
the baking five minutes early. Something I also do sometimes is open the
machine briefly several times during baking, to cool the air off inside.
I’m sure someone out there has a reason why this shouldn’t be done, but it
works for me g
