I made up this recipe last week, and the loaf disappeared. Literally. It didn't last 24 hours. I used my bread maker, but I will post directions for a conventional oven. The finished product is FANTASTIC used for French Toast.
Ingredients:
•2 teaspoons yeast
•3 cups all purpose flour
•1 1/2 teaspoons salt
•3/4 cup plain yogurt
•3 teaspoons butter
•3 tablespoons honey (I used Missouri Wildflower honey from Femme Osage Apiary)
•1/2 cup warm water
•1 teaspoon orange oil (I found mine at Dollar Tree, but I'm sure any grocery store has it.)
•1 cup dried cranberries
Directions: In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand about 10 minutes, or until it is slightly foamy. In mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of the flour and the salt. Add yogurt, butter, orange oil and honey. Mix well. Add cranberries and fully incorporate. Continue adding the remaining flour until a soft dough forms. It should not be sticky. Kneed on floured surface for about 3 minutes.
Cover and let dough rise about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake dough in loaf pan until a knife inserted in center of loaf comes out clean & crust is lightly golden.
