Norwegian Nog Christmas Bread (Bread Machine)
1 package of Active dry yeast
1/2 cup of low-fat or regular eggnog, heated to 105 to 115ºF.
2 cups of bread flour (to 2 1/4c)
1 teaspoon of ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 large Egg
1 large Egg yolk
4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup of dried currants or raisins
1/3 cup of chopped candied fruit & rind
1. Combine yeast and eggnog in the bucket of a bread machine, stirring to
dissolve yeast. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup flour. Begin
dough cycle, letting it run just long enough to mix dough. Stop cycle and leave
mixture in bucket, covered, until it is light and puffy, about 1 hour.
2. Add 1 cup of the remaining flour, the cardamom, salt, egg, egg yolk and
butter. Begin dough cycle. After dough is mixed and as it is still kneading,
check the texture of the dough and add additional flour as needed, to make a
soft, slightly sticky dough. Add currants and fruit as indicated in instruction
manual. Complete dough cycle. When bread is cool, glaze if desired.
Note: If you prefer a traditional shape, the dough can be removed from the
bread machine after the rising cycle. Shape dough into an oval, place it on a
greased baking sheet, cover and let rise at room temperature for about 40
minutes. Brush the loaf with a glaze made from an egg yolk mixed with 1
tablespoon whipping cream; sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake in a heated 325ºF.
oven until golden, 30 to 35 minutes.
