Ingredients

Cost per serving $0.64 view details
  • 4 c. unbleached flour - (to 5 c.) plus more
  • 1 dsh salt
  • 1 pkt dry yeast - (1/4 ounce)
  • 1 tsp water
  • 1/4 c. sugar
  • 3/4 c. butter - (1 1/2 sticks)
  • 1 1/2 c. lowfat milk Oil for greasing
  • 3 c. raisins
  • 1 c. mixed peel see * Note
  • 1 x egg beaten

Directions

  1. * Note: Mixed peel is a wonderful baking staple available in Britain which is basically dry, slightly candied citrus peel. I do not find the equivalent here, but I got nice results using some of Trader Joe's special mixed dry fruit combinations (like tropical fruit combination).
  2. Mix flour and dash salt in bowl. In another small bowl, combine yeast with water and 1 tsp. sugar and mix to a paste, then stir in remaining sugar. Heat butter with lowfat milk in small saucepan, then cold till lukewarm. Combine with yeast mix. Pour liquid ingredients into flour mix and stir to create soft dough.
  3. Turn dough out onto floured board and knead at least 10 min till smooth and elastic. Put kneaded dough into lightly oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in hot place till doubled in size, 2 hrs.
  4. Turn dough onto board again, press flat and sprinkle raisins and peel over. Form into ball and knead again to mix raisins and peel through. Shape into round dome about 10 inches in diameter - a bannock. Raisins will break up with kneading and create pretty, brown-flecked dough. Brush top and sides with beaten egg, then leave in hot place till well-risen, about 1 hour.
  5. Bake at 425 degrees 15 min, then reduce heat to 375 degrees and bake 20 min more. Remove from oven. Test for doneness by tapping base of loaf. It should sound hollow. Cold before slicing.
  6. This recipe yields 12 servings.
