Categories     Vegetable     Bread

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 cups water (70 to 80 degrees F)
2 tablespoons butter, softened
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup dried minced onion
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon poppy seeds

3 cups bread flour

  • Select basic bread setting. Choose crust color and loaf size if available.
  • Bake according to bread machine directions. Check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed.

Tips:

  • To caramelize the onions: Use a large skillet and cook the onions over medium-low heat for at least 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will allow the onions to caramelize slowly and develop a deep, rich flavor.
  • To make the poppy seed filling: Combine the poppy seeds, sugar, butter, and milk in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the poppy seed mixture has thickened.
  • To assemble the bread: Roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Spread the poppy seed filling in an even layer over the dough. Roll up the dough tightly, starting from one long side. Pinch the edges to seal. Place the loaf seam-side down in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  • To bake the bread: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the bread for 45-50 minutes, or until it is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
