Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup milk
3/4 cup water
1 tbps olive oil
5 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
2 pkgs quick rising yeast
1 pkg frozen spinach thawed
1 small can of sliced black olives
1/4 cup feta cheese
2 tbls of cut up dried tomatoes
1 sliced roasted red pepper (from jar is ok)
1/2 tsp of hot red pepper flakes
salt and pepper to taste for filling
Egg wash: 1 beaten egg with 1 tsp water
Sesame seeds, corn meal

Steps:

  • Heat milk and water for 90 sec on high in microwave (or until very warm to touch but not scorching hot). Place in bread making machine. Add the olive oil to the milk and water mixture. Place flour, salt and sugar on top of the wet mixture (do not mix). Make an indentation in the flour mixture. Add the yeast to the indentation. Turn on your bread machine to mix and rise. My machine takes 90 minutes for the cycle. You may need to add additional water or flour if dough is to dry or wet. Alternately, place the yeast and sugar to the hot liquids with the oil. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and kneed until dough is pliable (about 5 minutes). Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. While dough is rising. Drain thawed spinach. Mix in the remaining ingredients. Once dough is ready, separate into 2 portions. Flatten each portion like you are going to make pizzas. Place have of spinach mixture on each portion. Roll up dough jelly roll fashion (looks like log now). Fold over ends of each roll. Place on cookie sheet that has been sprinked with corn meal. Make several slits along top of log for air to escape. Brush each log with egg wash. Top with sesame seeds. Turn on oven to 400 degrees F. Let bread loaves rise until oven is heated to temperature. Bake for about 20 minutes or until loaves are golden and sound hollow when you knock on them. This bread freezes well and is best to be refrigerated after cutting into.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this bread. The spinach flavor was subtle and it didn't overpower the other ingredients. The bread was also very moist and flavorful.

This bread is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I always have a bunch of spinach in my fridge that I don't know what to do with, so this bread is a lifesaver. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
