Bread Machine Jalapeno Cheddar Bread
A soft, savoury machine loaf with sharp cheddar and chopped jalapenos folded in at the add-in beep, baked on one basic cycle.
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water 240 ml, about 40C
- 3 tablespoons butter softened, or neutral oil
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 3 1/2 cups strong white bread flour 450 g
- 2 1/4 teaspoons instant or active dry yeast
- 1 cup sharp cheddar 120 g, grated
- 2 to 3 tablespoons jalapenos chopped, fresh or jarred and well drained
Instructions
- Add the warm water, softened butter, sugar, and salt to the bread machine pan.
- Add the bread flour on top, ensuring it fully covers the liquid.
- Make a small well in the flour and add the yeast, or place it in the yeast dispenser if your machine has one.
- Place the grated cheddar and chopped jalapenos into the fruit and nut dispenser if your machine has one.
- If there is no dispenser, add them by hand when the machine beeps during the kneading stage.
- Select the Basic or White Bread cycle, choose the light crust setting, and press start.
- Allow the machine to knead, rise, fold in the add-ins, and bake the loaf automatically.
- Remove the loaf from the pan and cool on a wire rack for at least 45 minutes before slicing.
Notes
Nutrition values are an estimate. Add the cheese and peppers at the add-in beep rather than at the start, or they will melt into the dough and disappear. Drain jarred jalapenos thoroughly, since the brine counts as extra liquid and will slacken the dough. Cool the loaf for at least 45 minutes before slicing.
