Pecan Loaf

Pecan Loaf

1 tsp dry yeast

400 g bread flour

1 tsp salt

15 g butter

3 tbsp maple syrup

280 ml water

70 g chopped pecans

Place all the ingredients in a bread machine using the standard program.

If you don’t have a bread machine, there’s a little bit more work:

You can certainly do this in the oven, but first dissolve the yeast in warm water, wait 10 minutes, then add all the other ingredients and knead the dough well. Allow it to proof, then place it in a loaf pan, let it proof again, and finally bake at 200°C for about 30 minutes, or until the bread is nicely browned and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
