The Mad Scientist's Amazing Easter Fruit Bread

This recipe is designed to be used with a bread-maker.

Use the normal quantity of flour, water and yeast for your particular bread maker. Rye flour was used here and gives a beautiful moist bread.

Other ingredients:
One cup of mixed dried fruit
One cup of finely chopped dried apricots
Two teaspoons of dried blueberries
Tablespoon of chopped dried strawberries
Tablespoon of fig jam (mix this with the water prior to adding to the bread maker)

Mix all the dried fruit together with the flour and yeast and combine ingredients evenly before adding to the bread maker (I find sifting the flour before adding it to the mixing bowl gives an even better result).

Cook according to normal settings for a sweet bread.

Tastes great with fig jam (but any sort of fruit jam would go just as well).

Enjoy and Happy Easter!
