CHAI-SPICED BREAD



Chai-spiced Bread image

This is another recipe that I found in a Betty Crocker cookbooklet. The recipe makes a light loaf of bread with a delicious cinnamon glaze. It can be served as a snack or dessert with some fresh fruit, a wedge of cheese and a glass of iced tea (or if you prefer, a cup of hot tea). Note: water can be substituted for the chai tea.

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1/2 cup chai tea
1/3 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Spray the bottom of a 9" loaf pan with cooking spray (I use Pam).
  • Combine the sugar and butter in a large bowl.

  • Cool 10 minutes on a wire rack before removing from the pan.

Tips:

  • Make sure the butter is very cold before you start working with it. This will help the dough stay flaky and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Work quickly when rolling out the dough. The longer you work with it, the more the butter will warm up and the dough will become sticky.
  • If the dough becomes too sticky, place it in the refrigerator for a few minutes to firm it up.
  • Be careful not to over-proof the dough. If the dough proofs for too long, it will become too puffy and difficult to roll out.
  • Brush the bread with melted butter before baking. This will help the bread brown evenly and give it a golden crust.
  • Let the bread cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the bread hold its shape.

Conclusion:

Chai-spiced star bread is a delicious and festive bread that is perfect for any occasion. The chai spices give the bread a warm and inviting flavor, and the star shape makes it a beautiful centerpiece. If you are looking for a unique and flavorful bread to try, I highly recommend giving this recipe a try.
