Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm water (110-115°F)
  • 1 (0.25oz) package (7g) or 2 1/4 teaspoons Platinum Yeast
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 1 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 cup raspberry jam
  • 3/4 cup pecans (chopped)

Instructions

  • In a large bowl add warm water, yeast and sugar; whisk to combine. Set aside until foamy. Once yeast has proofed, add 1 cup flour and salt. Mix with dough whisk or large spoon.
  • Mix in remaining flour, ½ cup at a time. At this time you will probably need to use your hands.
  • Turn dough out onto a on lightly floured counter top. Knead until dough is soft and elastic, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Place dough into a lightly greased medium mixing bowl. Cover; let rise in a warm area until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Once doubled in size, punch down and place on a lightly floured surface. Roll dough out to about 10×20-inch rectangle.
  • Carefully, spread jam on dough, leaving about ½-inch around the edges. Sprinkle pecans evenly on top of jam.
  • Roll dough tightly, starting at the 10-inch side. Pinch the seal to close.
  • Using a sharp knife cut down the middle of the roll. Carefully braid (twist) the two pieces of dough – this will be a little messy. Tightly seal the ends together.
  • Gently place twisted dough in a lightly greased loaf pan. Cover; let rise for 30-45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Bake bread for 55 minutes, or until bread is golden brown.

If you like fruit & nut breads this is a good one to make. It was very easy to make as well and really a good tasting bread:)
