Chocolate Artisan Bread & Banana Almond Essence Butter
Chocolate Artisan Bread
1 1/2 cups lukewarm water, plus more for the broiler tray
1 1/2 tsp. granulated yeast (active dry, instant, quick rise, or bread machine is fine)
2 Tbs. raw cane sugar
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
3 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, measured by the scoop-and-sweep method
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3 oz. 70% dark chocolate, broken into smallish pieces
Follow all the instructions for Easy Artisan Bread, adding the sugar to the yeast and the chocolate and cocoa powder to the flour mixture in the very beginning.
Banana Butter
8 Tbs. Kerrygold butter, room temperature
1 ripe banana, mashed
Whip the two together! Add a touch of salt too.
Almond Essence Butter
8 Tbs. Kerrygold butter, room temperature
1/2 tsp. almond extract
Whip the two together! Add a touch of salt too.
Seemingly similar, the two combinations are surprisingly different. Very different in fact.
Explore, experiment, and enjoy.
