Quick Focaccia Bread

This month we have the great inspiration of the Italian bread, the best of the best in this cuisine.
I love a good focaccia bread, but sometimes I don’t have the time to make it with yeast, so I try and experiment with different recipes and methods and found the perfect compromise to this delicious bread.
So easy and fast you will love the crunchiness and the flavor, a mixture of basil oil with oregano and parmesan cheese.
Perfect for a side in salads or pasta, and of course just for the pleasure of eating perfectly delicious Italian bread.
Enjoy

Apple Braid BreadAnd we welcome the Autumn season with some inspired and delicious recipes made with apples, yes the #TwelveLoaves team, made a bunch of different types of bread and because is apple picking time, you can make all of them.
My take this month on a delicious apple inspired bread is something the I love eating growing up, Braid Bread, the bakeries in my country have all kinds of braid bread, sweet or salty you just can’t decide in just one.
I try this recipe a couple of times and is not your typical bread recipe, is more compact and doesn’t rise a lot.
The most important here, is the you make the bread and enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea, because in the cool afternoons there is nothing better than that.
Enjoy

For the Dough:

  • 21/2 cups flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup soft butter

  • 1/3 cup warm milk
  • 2 teaspoon of dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt

For the filling:

  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 2 apples, cut into chunks

  • 1 teaspoon grown cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup Dulce de Leche

In a slightly flour surface, place the dough and knead for a few minutes, place in the bowl aging and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Bread 3

 

In the meant time place dulce de leche, cinnamon, salt and apples in a pot and cook for 5 minutes in low heat. Let it cool completely, this is important we don’t want a hot filling for out dough.

Bread 4

Ok now the fun part, form a rectangle with the dough and place it in a baking sheet cover with parchment paper, add the filling in the center and cut the sides, about 10 each side, but from the center to the outside, is a little messy but thats ok, my little daughter help me with this one and it was super fun.

Bread 5

See what  I mean, when I have help everything looks so beautiful, ok then put the little pieces one on top of the others, remember to close the ends, you can brush some egg mix with little water to make it more brown and delicious.
