ailbhe: (bread)
[personal profile] ailbhe
1 lb flour
1 tsp yeast
1 tsp sugar
3 tsp mixed spice

1 egg, beaten
enough rice milk to make up to 1/4 pint
1/4 pint hot water

Sift dry ingredients together.
Mix the rice milk into the egg and add the hot water carefully, so the egg doesn't cook.

Stir the wet into the dry and then knead with oiled hands.

Leave to rise.


That's as far as I've got. When it's risen I'll knock it back, probably add some raisins in, leave it to rise again, then bake it fairly hot.

We Shall See. I've never put mixed spice or egg in bread before.

You may want to glaze the bread, too. Mix an egg with a tablespoon of water, and, just before baking, brush it over the surface.

I've found that the richer the mix the longer it takes to rise, so you may have to be patient with it. Good luck - it sounds lovely.

Can be shortened by proofing the yeast beforehand.

You may have found the spices want some extra sugar. This is no bad thing, just different from what you're used to.
