Apricot Raisin Bread (Bread Machine)

• 1 cup milk
• 1/3 cup butter
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 3 3/4 cups flour
• 2 1/4 teaspoons bread machine yeast
• 1 cup chopped dried apricot
• 1/4 cup raisins

1. Heat cold milk for 30 seconds in the microwave; hold eggs under tap water for a minute to warm.
2. Add ingredients according to your manufacturer's directions.
3. Set Cycle: Sweet, Size, 2lb.
4. After about 5 minutes, check your dough: Add a tablespoon of water if too dry, or a tablespoon of flour if too wet, until dough is smooth.
5. Alternatively, set cycle to dough, take dough out and shape as desired.
6. I like to divide the dough in half, then divide each half into three, roll into ropes and braid, joining the dough ends together to create a braided circle.
7. Leave to rise until doubled, bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
