Bara Brith Bread Maker Recipe

Ingredients

This bara brith bread maker recipe will make a delicious, fruity and moist traditional Welsh treat. To make this delicious bara brith, you will need the following ingredients:

1 cup of mixed dried fruit
1 cup of strong black tea
2 tablespoons of soft brown sugar
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of ground allspice
1 teaspoon of salt
1 egg
2 tablespoons of melted butter
2 cups of all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon of active dry yeast

Instructions

To start, pour the cup of mixed dried fruit into a bowl and pour the cup of strong black tea over it. Allow the fruit to soak for at least 30 minutes or until the tea is absorbed. Once the fruit is soaked, add the soft brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground allspice and salt to the mixture and stir to combine.

Next, crack the egg into the bowl and stir it into the mixture. Add the melted butter and stir to combine. Finally, add the all-purpose flour and active dry yeast and stir to combine. The mixture should form a thick, dough-like consistency.

Once the dough is ready, place it into your bread maker pan and set the machine to the ‘Dough’ setting. Allow the dough to knead and rise until it doubles in size. Once the dough is ready, remove it from the pan, shape it into a loaf and place it into a greased, 9x5 inch loaf pan.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the loaf for 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Once the bara brith is ready, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool before slicing and serving.
