Santa Bread: a wonderful idea!
published on 9 December, 2017 at 13:59
Ingredients:3 cups bread flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 packages active dry yeast
1-1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 eggs
2 raisins
2 egg yolks
2 to 3 drops red food coloring
Preparation:
Combine dry yeasts, warm milk and water, and 1 tbsp sugar.
Add 1.5 cups flour, sugar, salt, eggs and melted butter. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
Place in a bowl, cover and let rise about 1 hour.
Divide dough into two portions, one slightly larger than the other.
Shape the larger portion into an elongated triangle with rounded corners.
Divide the smaller portion in half. Shape and flatten one half into a beard. Using a pizza cutter, cut into strips to within 1 in. of top.
Use the remaining dough for the mustache, nose, hat pom-pom and brim.
Put raisins like eyes.
In separate small bowls, beat egg each yolk. Add red food coloring to one yolk; carefully brush over hat, nose and cheeks. Brush plain yolk over remaining dough.
Cover loosely with foil. Bake at 350°F/180C for 15 minutes. Uncover; bake 10-12 minutes longer or until golden brown.
