Ingredients

• ½ cup milk
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
• ¾ cup water
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1 ¼ teaspoons salt
• ⅛ teaspoon ground cardamom
• ¼ teaspoon ground coriander
• ¼ cup dark brown sugar
• 3 cups high-gluten bread flour

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch bread pan.

Step 2

Place water, milk, vanilla extract, brown sugar, white sugar, cardamom, coriander, vegetable oil, and salt into the pan of a bread machine in that order. Pour the flour onto the other ingredients, and sprinkle the flour with yeast. Set the bread machine to the Dough cycle; turn on the machine.

Step 3

When the Dough cycle is completed, remove the dough from the machine, punch down if necessary, form into a loaf, and place into the prepared bread pan with the seam side down. Cover and let rise until doubled, 20 to 30 minutes.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until the loaf is golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to finish cooling on a rack.
