This bread came out of the oven late last night, and it’s already nearly gone. It is delicious, fun to make, and looked so pro, even with my inexperience in baking! I hand-kneaded and baked it on the bottom rack of a little toaster oven. It puffed up beautifully and smelled wonderful. The swirl is easy to make and feels all fancypants. Thank you, Richa, for yet another awesome recipe!
Awesome!! thats the purpose of this bread. to be festive and fancypants :))
Nice recipe collection and too good photography 🙂
delicious combination.. Can’t wait to try it out!
You have the instructions to make the sponge, then the bread, but where do you mix the two? I assume you do at some point but the sponge is not mentioned again in the recipe after letting it sit 45 min.
When you mix the salt into the flour (step 1 of bread) you use the full 2 cups and add the 1 3/4 cup on top of that? Or mix the salt with 1/4 cup flour, then add the remaining 1 3/4 cup?
you knead the flour into the sponge. 1 3/4 cup of the flour is from the 2 cups. I will add this to the intructions.
You had me at pumpkin with cinnamon. Such a delicious combination, I can’t wait to try it! Perfect bread for the holidays 🙂
it is festive and so delicious!
Could you use dairy skim milk?
