How to Make Plum Blueberry Lemon Bread & Cinnamon Spice Swirl
- If using the dried fruit, place all of the fruit mix in a bowl barely cover with hot water. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, place all bread ingredients, set aside.
- In the measuring cup (Pyrex), put the honey/dark brown sugar and pour over with hot water. Mix completely.
- Then add, milk and stir. Follow that with the yeast. Whisking in completely, not leaving any clumps. Set aside for 15 minutes.
- Pour yeast into bread ingredients. Mix well. Then add fruit mix to dough. Mix well.
- Dump out mix onto a floured surface. Knead for 10 minutes. Place dough in a large, lidded, greased pot. Leave in a warm place for 1 hour.
- Then dump out mixture again. Degas. Fold like an envelope in thirds. Then repeat from a different angle. Again return to the pot. Leave for an hour.
- To make filling, take all the ingredients, room temperature and mix together.
- Halve dough. Gently degas. Flatten dough halves into rectangles or squares.
- Dump half of the filling into each rectangle. Spread all the way to edges. Roll almost tightly. Then place each half into a greased bread pan.
- Wet dough by getting hand wet and tapping top of loaf. Sprinkle on topping ingredients.
- Cover and allow to rise for 30-60 minutes.
- Bake at 375 for about 40-50 minutes. Or until having a hollow sound when tapped.
