Fruit Bread made by Karolina Črešnar
50 dag flour type 850
10 dag rye flour (optional)
1 cube of yeast, water, salt
15 dag dried plums
10 dag apricot
10 dag figs
5 dag walnuts
5 dag raisins
15 dag apples
10 dag pears
Knead the dough and let rise for a while. I usually weigh the dough and add the same quantity of fruit. Cut apples and pears and soak in wine, soak the rest of dried fruit in rum, best over night. After rising I add fruit and knead carefully, I let rise and form a loaf. I place it into a basket covered in flour and let rise again (for at least an hour). Bake in a wood-fired oven or in an electric oven for 55 to 60 minutes.
Enjoy... :)
