Ingredients:
6 oz fresh or frozen (thawed) black cherries
1 cup nonfat, plain greek style yogurt
1 cup whole milk, warmed
1/4 cup demerara sugar
2 egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp salt
2 tsp instant yeast
2 cups whole wheat bread flour
1 1/2 cups rye flour
1 tbsp finely ground coffee beans (not instant coffee)
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp ancho chile powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup cacao nibs
2 tbsp dark raisins, soaked in hot water and drained
1 tbsp rolled oats, for topping
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400F and grease a rimmed baking sheet.

3. Roast for 30 minutes, then chop roughly and scrape into a bowl. Cool completely.
4. In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, milk, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla and salt. Set aside.
5. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, whisk together the yeast, flours, coffee, cocoa, ancho chile powder and cinnamon.

11. Preheat oven to 350°F.
