Ricotta, Olive oil Bread with a hint of Carom seeds

Ricotta, Olive oil Bread is tasty and full of flavor for a fresh change to a store bought loaf.

  • Serves 12
  • Prep 1 hour
  • Cook 40 minutes
  • Total 2 hours

Ingredients

  • 3.5 cups bread flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup silken tofu
  • 2/3 cup warm water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon carom (ajwain seeds)
  • 1 Tablespoon vegan butter
  • 1 flax egg
  • 1/3 cup herbed olive oil or plain olive oil
  • 1 packet quick rise yeast (1.25 teaspoons)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Warm the water and add the yeast and sugar to it and mix well. Let sit for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grease the mixer bowl and add the dry ingredients. Give them a good mix.

  3. 3

    Add the cheese, egg, butter and oil and the yeast mixture and knead for about 8 minutes in batches or 2-3 minutes. Or knead by hand for the same amount of time till a nice soft non sticky dough is formed. Add more flour or water if needed.

  4. 4

    Place dough in well oiled container. Spray cooking oil on its top and cover with plastic wrap.

  5. 5

    Let it rise for an hour in a warm place.

  6. 6

    Punch the dough down and knead for a few seconds.

  7. 7

    Make a loaf out of it by pulling on all sides and tucking it under.

  8. 8

    Place tucked side down in bread pan.

  9. 9

    Bake in pre-heated oven at 365 degree F / 170ºc for 40 minutes or until nicely brown on the top.

  10. 10

    Cool completely before slicing. I usually slice it after keeping it in the refrigerator for a few hours for nice and clean slices.
