Sweet bread

I saw this recipe and was intrigued as I thought it would tick boxes for fussy eaters.

I baked them and not only was I right šŸ˜‰ but they were surprisingly nice. In fact, both my taste testers scoffed them with delight.

Iā€™m not really into sweet things and even I have to say I could happily eat a tray of these!

You may be thinking ā€œbut I know my child can eat bread, what I really want is them to eat broccoliā€. However, although broccoli may be the end goal, we donā€™t go from regular bread to green veg.

Offering new foods that are different to those our child usually eats is valuable.

I reckon these are worth a whirl even if your child wonā€™t eat them šŸ˜‰ especially if you like jam and cream scones.

Recipe

1 cup + 1 tbs flour (I used wholemeal)
1 tsp yeast
Ā½ tsp salt
2 tbs sugar (I used slightly less and used coconut sugar)
1 egg
Ā½ cup + 1 tbs milk ā€“ warm to blood temp
1/3 cup melted butter

I threw everything in the bread maker to knead. If doing by hand bring it all together into a dough and knead for 10 minutes. You could also do on the dough setting of a mixer. The dough should be smooth.

Place in a greased bowl, cover and preferably put somewhere warm to rise for a good hour.

Rip into 6 pieces and form rolls, placing them in a greased baking dish. They should be just touching.
Leave to rise another 45 mins.
