St Basil's Bread (bread Machine)

Ingredients & Directions 3/4 c Milk 2 Whole eggs 4 tb Butter or margarine 1/2 ts Lemon peel; grated * 3 c Bread flour 1 ds Ground cloves 1/2 ts Nutmeg 1/4 ts Cinnamon 1/2 ts Salt 1/2 c Sugar 2 ts Yeast Traditional Greek bread usually served with 1 coin hidden inside which superstition says bestows luck upon the finder. Do not add a coin to your machine but you may add a single raisin at the beep. This is a delicious sweet bread and makes wonderful sandwiches. This is really one of our favorites. Recipe originally from “Kay L. Hitchcock” HITCHCOC_K@popmail.firn.edu to The TNT Recipes List. ~~~~ Because of the milk and eggs in the recipe it is not recommended that you use the delayed bake option. Set the bread machine for Sweet Bread (8 for an Oster machine). Add ingredients according to the recommendation of the machine. When I made this, I had no lemons, so I used orange peel. It tastes great with the orange peel. I will have to try it with lemon some day. Russell Fletcher cccewbauthor@bigfoot.com Yields 10 Servings
