How to make jamaican cherry ginger bread

  • Put milk and butter in a medium saucepan. Heat until warm, 105 to 115 degrees F.
  • Pour milk mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add yeast. Stir until dissolved.
  • Add brown sugar, lime juice and salt. Mix well. Add 2 cups bread flour.
  • Beat on low speed with an electric mixer until flour is moistened. Beat 3 minutes at medium speed.
  • Stir in remaining 1 1/4 cups bread flour, coconut, dried cherries, lime peel and ginger. Mix until dough pulls cleanly away from sides of bowl.
  • Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, adding more bread flour, if needed.
  • Place dough in a greased mixing bowl. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and a cloth.
  • Let rise in a warm place, 80 to 85 degrees F, about 1 hour or until double in size.
  • Punch down dough several times to remove all air bubbles. Let rest 15 minutes.
  • Shape into a loaf. Place in a greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan.
  • Cover. Let rise in a warm place 45 to 60 minutes or until double in size.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven 40 to 50 minutes or until golden and loaf sounds hollow when lightly tapped.
  • Remove from pan immediately. Let cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
