egg-free, APF-free homemade savory swirl bread using butter milk, wheat flour
Ingredients
- Wheat flour 3 cup
- Buttermilk (Luke warm) 1 cup
- Yeast (instant) 1/2 tbsp
- Luke warm water 1/4 cup
- Butter (unsalted) 2 tbsp + 1 tbsp
- Sugar 2 tbsp + 1 tsp
- Baking soda 1/4 tsp
- Salt 1/2 tsp
- Garlic clove (finely chopped) 4-5 no.
- Coriander leaf (finely chopped) 1/4 cup
- Oil for greasing
- Milk for milk wash
Instructions
- In a small bowl mix Luke warm water, 1 tsp sugar and yeast using a spoon.
- Keep aside covered for 8-10 minutes or till the yeast starts frothing.
- Meanwhile in a large mixing bowl take butter milk (Luke warm), baking soda, 2 tbsp sugar, salt and mix well.
- Add the yeast mixture to the bowl and mix all again.
- Add the flour in two parts and start mixing using a spatula.
- Add 2 tbsp butter and mix once again which results into a sticky dough.
- Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and knead the dough for 8-10 minutes or till a soft and smooth (not the sticky kind) dough achieved.
- Then put the dough in a greased bowl, cover and keep aside for 1 hours or more to double in size.
- Meanwhile, grease a loaf pan with oil and then dust the inner side of the loaf pan with some flour. Keep aside.
- Also in a small bowl mix 1 tbsp butter along with finely chopped coriander leaves (keep some aside) and garlic cloves. Keep aside.
- When the dough rises well to double in size, take out from the bowl.
- Give a quick knead to the dough with oil-greased hands.
- Roll the dough to a rectangular shape first on a floured work surface.
- Spread the garlic-coriander-butter mixture evenly on top side of the rectangle dough.
- Then roll up and make a loaf pan size log shape of the dough, pinch seam to seal.
- Place this dough in the greased and dusted loaf pan with seam side down
- Cover and keep aside the pan to rise again (this is the second rise) for 40-45 minutes (approximately double in size).
- Meanwhile preheat the oven at 190 deg C for 10 minutes.
- After the loaf dough becomes double in size, gently brush the top with milk and then sprinkle some chopped coriander leaves.
- Then bake for 35-40 minutes.
- Take out from the oven, unmold the bread and brush the top with butter.
- Keep over a wire rack and allow to cool down completely.
- Using a serrated knife, slice and serve !
Notes:
Buttermilk can be store bought or homemade. For homemade mix 1/2 cup curd with 1/2 cup of water/milk to get 1 cup of butter milk. To get Luke warm butter milk, use milk / water in Luke warm condition before mixing with curd. Do check the freshness of yeast before adding to the flour. If it is not proofing, then the yeast is old one, throw out and do buy a fresh packet. Always use the Luke warm water. If hot water is used then that will kill the yeast which results to no froth in the yeast sugar mixture. Instead of only wheat flour, both all purpose flour and wheat flour can be used in 1:1 ratio.
