Does anyone know a good sugar bread recipes?!
Answers: If so does anyone know how to make the kind of sugar bread you can find in ghana? I would love to make bread the way mum can but I'm not quite there yet.
Brown Sugar Bread:
30 min 5 min prep
6 servings 1 loaf
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter, divided
1 egg, well beaten
3/4 cup milk
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar
Cream sugar and 1 tablespoon butter, add egg.
Add milk and mix well.

Bake in hot oven (435 F) 25 minutes.
As they say in Ghana, "Little by little, the chicken drinks water." The tea bread recipe is getting better and better. I've added some gluten flour, trimmed down the amount of yeast, and substituted ground mace for the nutmeg. I'm also using my electric bread maker to mix the dough (otherwise, just knead it).
Into the bread maker (or bowl), add (liquids first):
about 1 (8 oz.) cup warm water, and
2 oz margarine
Next, 1 lb. 1 oz. bread flour (I used Pillsbury this time), and
4 teaspoons gluten,
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground mace
3/4 teaspoon dry powdered yeast
I set the timer on the "dough" setting, and wait for it to finish, then remove the dough, and put it in a greased bowl to sit for about 8 hours, then punch it down, shape it into a loaf or loaves with slightly tapered edges (I no longer use the bread pans), place it (them) on a lightly greased/oiled cookie sheet and let the dough rest for about half an hour (I always let my dough rise lightly covered with a dishtowel and rest in a slightly warmed oven with a bowl of water. Bake in a preheated oven at 375 degrees for about 45 minutes.
