TWD/BWD: Twist Bread

 


Dorie's Twist Bread is a great way to make a simple daily white bread much more fancy and festive.

The dough is spread with a mixture of butter, sugar, cinnamon, and cocoa powder, then sprinkled with raisins or other dried fruit.  I made a note to try mini chocolate chips the next time I make this.

The rolled dough is split, braided, and coiled into a twist.  It is placed in a round pan, brushed with an egg wash and sprinkled with coarse sugar.

It's definitely a lovely bread to look at and delicious to eat. especially toasted or transformed into French toast or bread pudding.


 

Stop by the Tuesdays with Dorie website to see which treat the bakers made this week.
