Honey Walnut Bread

Teresa Ambra
Honey Walnut Bread is a delicious bread that's so easy to make since it's made in the breadmaker! Recipe uses honey, walnut oil and walnuts making it explode with flavor. This is a terrific bread to serve for breakfast or dinner using jams, preserves or honey as a topping. Also a great sandwich bread because of the texture. If you enjoy homemade bread, this recipe hearty and satisfying.

Equipment

  • 1 breadmaker for a two-pound loaf
  • 1 pastry brush to brush the bread with butter after baking
  • 1 electric knife preferred, or a sharp bread knife
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 nut chopper if nuts are not previously chopped

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups hot water
  • 5 tbsp. honey
  • 3 tbsp. walnut oil
  • 4 cups bread flour NOT all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder
  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 1 1/4 tsp. bread machine yeast
  • 1 cup walnuts very finely chopped (measure after chopping)

Instructions
 

  • Layer ingredients in order given in bread canister.
  • Place on regular white bread setting. Mine takes 3 hours 50 minutes.
  • Allow bread to cool about 15 minutes before removing from oven.
  • Remove bread from canister and butter the top and sides with butter to prevent the crust from hardening.
  • Slice down when cool.

Notes

NOTE: Homemade bread has no preservatives so it needs to be refrigerated after 2 days.
 
NOTE: all-purpose flour does not contain the necessary gluten to bond the ingredients together as well as bread flour. The bread may turn out crumbly. For best results use bread flour.
 
NOTE: I recommend using Fleischmann's yeast or bread machine yeast in any yeast bread recipe. Red Star yeast just doesn't work as well.
 
NOTE: If you cannot locate walnut oil, avocado or pistachio oil may be a good substitute.
