While looking through the cookbooks in a thrift shop I found one on Machine breads. It has the most incredible recipes. This is one I just had to try today. The bread is so tender & slightly sweet with pieces of apricot dotted across each slice

2 cups white bread flour
1 tblspn dry milk powder
1 tsp salt
1 tblspn butter
3 tblspns apricot jam
1/2 cup diced dried apricots
1 tsp fast rise yeast
2 lb loaf
1 1/4 cups water
3 cups white bread flour
2 tblspns dry milk powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tblspns butter
1/4 cup apricot jam
3/4 cup diced dried apricots
2 tsp fast rise yeast
Directions:
1. Place water in a microwave safe container & add butter
2. Heat until butter has melted
3. Pour into bread machine pan & stir in the apricot jam
4. Allow to cool to luke warm
5. Stir the dry milk & the salt into the flour until well mixed
6. Add diced apricots to the flour mixture & mix well until the apricot pieces are separated throughout the flour
7. Add on top of the water in the bread machine pan
8. Make a well in the center & add the yeast
9. Set your machine for white bread & light or medium crust
10. Turn on machine.
11. NOTE:- Use a jam that has high content of fruit.
12. Although this recipe was created for the machine I'm sure it would turn out just as good by hand
