I found a similar recipe years ago. I adapted the recipe to the bread machine and tweaked to suit my taste. It is supposed to be a copycat of Publix Supermarket's breakfast bread. I have never tasted this bread from Publix, so I cannot say. I CAN say that this does make a great breakfast bread. It makes such delicious toast! I hate to post recipes already posted on JAP so I checked through 15 pages of Fruit Breads and Breakfast Breads. Whew...! I didn't find a bread like this. This bread recipe will speak to bread machine lovers and those that prefer the manual method. It incorporates both.

How To Make breakfast fruit bread

1
Place all ingredients, except nuts and fruit, in bread pan in order listed. Select dough only setting. During the cycle, check your dough consistency. Dough should form a nice, elastic ball. If dough appears too moist, add additional flour, a tablespoon @ a time. If dough appears too dry, add warm water, a tablespoon @ a time.

2
Add fruit and nuts when add in signal sounds. If your machine does not have an add in signal, add after 15 minutes of dough cycle.
3
When dough cycle is complete, remove dough from pan and turn out on a lightly floured board. Form dough into an oval, cover w/ towel or plastic wrap and let rest 10 minutes.
4
After resting, turn dough bottom side up and press to flatten. Shape dough into loaf and place on baking sheet that has been prepared w/ butter or cooking spray. Cover w/ plastic wrap and place in warm spot to rise; 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
5
After rising, slash the loaf w/ a very sharp knife, making three 1/2 inch deep diagonal slashes. Bake in 350 degrees F. preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from oven and place on cooling rack. Let loaf cool for @ least 30 minutes before cutting. YUM! Enjoy with a cup of coffee.
6
NOTE: I use my oven for rising all my breads. Turn oven on for about a minute and then turn off. This will slightly warm your oven, making it a great environment for rising. Once in oven, your loaf will also be protected from drafts.
