Serves: 6-12
Ingredients
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tsp active dry yeast
  • 3 tbsp muscovado sugar
  • ½ cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 3 cup flour (bread flour, wholemeal, spelt or gluten-free bread mix)
Instructions
  1. Combine 1 tablespoon of sugar, ½ cup of water and the active yeast to a small bowl. Whisk to dissolve the yeast and allow to stand until foamy.
  2. In a large bowl or stand mixer bowl mix flour, salt and remaining sugar. Add the yeast mixture and by hand or with stand mixer dough hook combine all ingredients. Turn the dough out and knead for 10 - 15 minutes until elastic.
  3. Shape the dough into a ball and place into a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or tea towel and leave to rise in a warm place until double in volume (1 - ½ hours).
  4. Grease a 8x5 inch loaf pan. Punch the dough down, then on a flat surface shape the loaf. Flatten with a rolling pin to 20 x 30cm. Roll up dough like a Swiss roll, tightly and firmly.
  5. Place into prepared loaf pan and press down with knuckles gently into corners of pan.
  6. Leave to rise for a further hour until mushroomed 2 inches above pan. 20 minutes before end of rise time, preheat oven to 175C. Bake for 40-50minutes - use a thermometer to check internal temperature of bread has reached 90C at centre or tap bottom of loaf to ensure it's hollow.
