[Red bean paste braided bread]

Overview

With Dongling's bread machine, making bread is much more convenient. I have made bread several times and it is getting better and better. This time I tried to make red bean paste braided bread. I used the methods of bread machine kneading, natural fermentation, manual shaping, and bread machine baking. The finished product tastes sweet, has a soft texture, and is elastic. Bread with red bean paste is also more nutritious, and children like to eat it more.

1. 1 The raw materials are well weighed.

   

2. 2 Install the mixing knife in the bread barrel, add yogurt, eggs, salt in one corner and sugar in the other corner.

   

3. 3 Add flour, make a pit on the flour with your finger, and add yeast.

   

4. 4 Turn on the bread machine and select the dough mixing program for 30 minutes.

   

5. 5 After kneading for 30 minutes, add the butter cut into small pieces.

   

6. 6 Select the kneading program again for 10 minutes. In this way, the dough will be kneaded to the fully expanded stage, and the bread will be softer

   

7. 7 Then let the dough ferment naturally for 1 hour, until the dough no longer springs up when pressed with your fingers.

   

8. 8 Take out the dough, deflate it, cover it with plastic wrap and let it rest for 20 minutes.

   

9. 9 Roll the dough into a rectangular shape.

   

10. 10 Spread red bean paste in the middle.

    

11. 11 Fold both sides toward the middle, then roll out thinly.

    

12. 12 Then fold it in half again, roll it out, and repeat again.

    

13. 13 Cut the dough into three strips, leaving the bottom uncut.

    

14. 14 Then braid the hair and roll it at the bottom.

    

15. 15 Remove the mixing knife from the bread bucket and add the shaped dough.

    

16. 16 Carry out secondary fermentation until it is 2.5 times its original size.

    

17. 17 Turn on the bread machine, select the baking program for 1 hour, and set the color to medium (at 55 minutes, I was satisfied with the color, so I ended the program early).

    

18. 18 Brush the top of the bread with egg wash when there are 20 minutes left in baking.

    

19. 19 After baking, take out the bread and let it cool, then store it in a crisper or plastic bag.
