20 g Yeast
120 ml Water (warm)
60 g Butter
5 ml Vanilla Extract
2 Eggs (beaten)

Scandinavian Citrus Bread with Almond Directions

  1. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups and level with a knife.
  2. Combine flour, granulated sugar (for dough), almonds, and the next ingredients (vanilla extract, yeast, water, butter, eggs) in a bowl.
  3. Dissolve 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar and yeast in warm water in a large bowl; let stand for 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in butter, vanilla extract, and 2 beaten eggs until well-blended.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture; stir to combine.
  6. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 8 minutes).
  7. Add enough remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands.
  8. Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top.
  9. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°F), free from drafts, for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Dough will not double in size.
  10. Punch down dough; let rest for 5 minutes.
  11. Roll into an 11 x 9-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
  12. Roll up rectangle tightly, starting with a short edge, pressing firmly to eliminate air pockets; pinch seam and ends to seal.
  13. Place, seam side down, in a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray.
  14. Cover and let rise for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
  15. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C (374°F)).
  16. Uncover the dough. Combine fat-free milk, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1 egg; brush lightly over loaf.
  17. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  18. Bake at 375°F (190°C (374°F)) for 45 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
  19. Remove from pan; cool on a wire rack.
  20. To prepare glaze, combine powdered sugar, water, and almond extract in a small bowl.
  21. Drizzle over loaf.
