Homemade Strawberry Jam Bread
- 1/2 pounds, 7/8 ounces, weight Plain Flour
- 1/4 ounces, weight Yeast
- 1 ounces, weight Sugar
- 1/2 Tablespoons Salt
- 7 tablespoons, 1 teaspoon, 5-1/8 pinches Warm Water
- 1 whole Egg, Beaten, Divided Use
- 1 ounces, weight Butter, Softened
- 1/2 cups Strawberry Jam
- In a mixing bowl combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix for 1 minute. Next add water and half of the beaten egg. Mix. Add butter and mix until combined. Knead by hand until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
- Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. After that, punch the dough down and make a large round ball and allow it to rise for 10 minutes longer.
- Now take out the dough ball and roll out with a rolling pin until you have roughly a 12 x10 inch rectangle that is about 1/4 inch thick.
- Place some strawberry jam on the top of the dough. I used homemade strawberry jam but store bought is fine. Spread it across the surface of the dough but leave about a 1 inch border around the entire rectangle - so the jam doesn't ooze out. Roll the dough up into a log. tut the log into 6 equal slices using a sharp knife.
- Place the dough slices (cut side up) in a greased round baking pan (diameter 8 inch) and allow to rise for 10 minutes. Next brush the remaining beaten egg over the top of the bread.
- Bake at 200 C for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve and enjoy.
