This tasty no-knead bread is so easy, it almost makes itself, chuckles Virginia Doyle of Pinedale, Wyoming. With raisins and a hint of orange flavor, It's wonderful toasted for breakfast or anytime of the day with tea. I like to keep some on hand to share when friends stop by our ranch. Ingredients:
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour, divided |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon baking powder |
1-1/4 cups orange juice |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
1 teaspoon grated orange peel |
1/2 cup raisins |
cornmeal |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar, yeast, salt and baking powder. In a saucepan, heat orange juice and butter to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on high for 3 minutes. Add orange peel. Stir in remaining flour (batter will be thick). Stir in raisins (do not knead).
2. Coat an 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pan with cooking spray and sprinkle with cornmeal; spoon batter into pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack. Yield: 1 loaf (12 slices).
