Serves: 16
Total Calories: 109

Ingredients

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons margarine or butter, softened
3 cups bread flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons yeast
2/3 cup granola cereal

Directions:

Measure carefully, placing all ingredients except granola in bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Add granola at the Raisin/Nut signal.

Select Dough/Manual cycle. Do not use delay cycles.

Remove dough from pan, using lightly floured hands. Cover and let rest 10 minutes on lightly floured surface.

Grease large cookie sheet. Shape dough into round loaf, about 5 inches in diameter and 3 inches high. Place on cookie sheet. Cover and let rise in warm place 45 to 60 minutes or until about 7 1/2 inches in diameter.

Heat oven to 400°. Make 2 long perpendicular cuts in top of loaf to resemble a large plus sign (+), using sharp knife. Brush or spray top of loaf with water. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack cool.

SUCCESS TIP
If your bread machine doesn't have a Raisin/Nut signal, add the granola 5 to 10 minutes before the last kneading cycle ends. Check your bread machine's use-and-care book to find out how long the last cycle runs.

Do-ahead Note
Cover the round loaf on the cookie sheet with plastic wrap. Refrigerate it from 4 hours up to 48 hours. Before baking, remove plastic wrap, cover with kitchen towel and let rise in a swarm place about 2 hours or until it is about 7 ½ inches in diameter. Then cut the top and bake the loaf as the recipe tells you.

Shaping
Make 2 long perpendicular cuts to resemble a large plus sign on top of the loaf.
