For this month’s Bread Bakers the theme
choosen by was Baking with Nuts or Nut flour…….
I thought of using Peanut in my bread. I made
this Sweet brittle with peanut and coconut , stuffed this in the ring shaped
bread and baked this sweet bread.
Requirements :
All purpose flour – 3
cup
Salt – 1 tsp
Sugar – 2 tbs
Instant Dry Yeast - 2 ½ tbs
Lukewarm water – 1 ½ cup
Butter – 1 tbs
For peanut Brittle :
Peanut – 1 cup
Grated fresh coconut – ½
cup
White sugar – 4 tbs
Brown sugar – 6 tbs
Clarified butter – 1 tsp
Method :
In a bowl , mix together
flour , salt , sugar and yeast .
To this add the lukewarm
water and mix the dough.
Knead the dough for 15
minutes or till the dough becomes soft and smooth.
Add the butter and knead
again.
Place the dough in a
oiled bowl and let it double for two hour.
Making of peanut Brittle
:
In a pan , add the
peanuts and roast till the nice flavor comes.
Let it cool and de-skin
the peanuts.
Add the de- skinned
peanuts and sugar , heat in a slow flame . The sugar melts and starts to
caramelize , mix well.
Add in the brown sugar
and let it melt and coats well with the peanuts.
Now , add the freshly
grated coconut and give a quick stir
followed by clarified butter . Take off flame and let it cool.
Roll the whole dough in an elongated way ,
to fit the ring mould pan .
Place this shaped bread
in the ring mould pan.
Bake the bread in a
preheated oven @ 200* C for 40 minutes.
Let the bread cool in
the rack.
Note :
We can make this peanut brittle without coconut
too. I added coconut to avoid the brittle becomes hard.
If fresh grated coconut is not available ,
can use dessicated coconut.
