ABOUT Honey And Beet Bread RECIPE

Honey Beet Bread has all the goodness and health benefits of Honey and Beets. It has a very soft crumb, subtle flavour of beets and a robust flavour of honey. If you love honey, you'll definitely love this bread.

Instructions

Whisk together first two ingredients in a large bowl.
Squeeze out the juice from grated beets. Add grated beets to flour mix.
Add honey to water and mix well. Add yeast and cover for 10 minutes. Yeast should begin to foam. Add butter.
Add liquid ingredients to dry ingredients and knead the dough. Keep adding warm milk while kneading to get a very soft and supple dough.
Transfer dough to a greased bowl. Turn around dough so that it is evenly coated with oil. Cover and keep in a dry and warm place to rise for 1 hour or until double.
Punch dough and knead for another 4 -5 minutes. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
Transfer dough to a floured counter. Roll it out into a rectangle not bigger than the width of the pan you are using. Roll the dough towards you, tightly. Pinch seams to seal. Place it in a greased 8 ½ x 4 ½ inch loaf pan with the seam side
Cover with a kitchen cloth and leave it to rise for 1 hour or till it crests above the rim of the pan.
During the last 10 minutes of rising, preheat oven to 180 degrees C.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or till it turns golden from the top and the bottom sounds hollow when tapped. If the bread appears to be browning too quickly, cover with a foil.
Remove from the pan after 10 minutes. Cool on the rack.
Slice when cold.
