Bread
1 (1/4-ounce) package active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm (105 to 115°F) water
3 1/4 to 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup milk
2/3 cup chopped mixed candied fruit
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/3 cup slivered almonds
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
1 large Land O Lakes® Egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons milk
Garnish
Candied cherries, if desired
STEP 1
Dissolve yeast in warm water in bowl. Add 2 cups flour, milk, candied fruit, raisins, almonds, sugar, 1/4 cup butter, egg, salt, cardamom, and lemon zest. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to make dough easy to handle.
STEP 2
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead 5 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place into greased bowl; turn greased-side up. Cover; let rise in warm place 1 1/2 hours or until double in size. (Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.)
STEP 3
Punch down dough; shape into round loaf. Place into greased 9-inch round cake pan. Brush top of dough with melted butter. Cover; let rise 1 hour or until double in size.
STEP 4
Heat oven to 350°F.
STEP 5
Bake 35-45 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan immediately. Cool completely.
STEP 6
Stir together powdered sugar and enough milk for desired glazing consistency in bowl. Spread over bread. Garnish with candied cherries, if desired..
