Servings: 8
Ingredients
- Cornmeal for pan
- 2 1/2 C bread flour
- 1 pkg rapid rise yeast
- 1/2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 medium apple diced roughly 1/2C
- 1 1/4 C apple cider heated to 115°F
Instructions
- Lightly grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle well with cornmeal. Discard extra cornmeal.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine dry ingredients. Dice apple into 1/4-inch pieces. Add to dry ingredients, tossing well to coat. Heat cider to a temperature of 115-120°F. With mixer running on low, slowly add warm apple cider. Increase speed to medium, continuing to mix until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
- Lightly grease a rubber spatula or your hands. Transfer dough to prepared loaf pan. *Dough will be sticky. Spread dough into an even layer, pressing into corners. Sprinkle with cornmeal. Cover and allow to rise in a warm location until doubled in size, roughly 60-90 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake for 30 minutes. Allow bread to cool in pan for at least 15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Toast slices and serve with bread, jam or apple butter. Store remaining bread in an airtight container.
