Ingredients

  • 1½ cups water, room temperature
  • 4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • ⅓ cup fresh cranberry
  • 3 tablespoons dry cranberry
  • 3 tablespoons walnuts, roughly chopped

Preparation

  1. Put all dough ingredients in the order listed in the bread pan fitted with the kneading paddle. Secure the bread pan in the Cuisinart® Custom Convection Bread Maker. Put the mix-in ingredients into the Automatic Mix-in Dispenser.
  2. Press Menu to select the White program. Press Loaf Size and Crust Color to select both size and crust preference. Press Confirm to confirm choices and then press Start/Stop/Pause to begin the program.
  3. If desired, when the paddle signal sounds, press Start/Stop/Pause to pause the unit; remove the dough and kneading paddle, reshape the dough, and replace in the bread pan, seam side down. Press Start/Stop/Pause to resume the program. (Note: This is a recommended step when preparing the 1-pound
    loaf due to the shortened height of this bread.)
  4. When the cycle is complete, remove the bread pan from the machine and transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

To Prepare Using Rapid Program: Prepare ingredients for the 1- or 1½-pound loaf (this is not recommended for a 2-pound loaf), replacing the yeast with 1½ teaspoons of rapid-rise yeast for the 1-pound loaf or 2¼ teaspoons of rapid-rise yeast for the 1½-pound loaf. Secure the bread pan in the unit and press Menu to select the Rapid program. Press Start/Stop/Pause to begin the program and then continue with Step 3 in recipe above.
