Adding grated, fresh beets to this bread turns the dough a beautiful pink, with cranberry flecks. Once it is a soft dough, form into a ball and let rise.
When it is doubled in size, punch down and place into a bread pan for a second rise.
When it has risen above the top of the bread pan it is ready to go into the oven for a quick bake.
Brush with an egg wash, sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for half an hour.
I served this bread up with a Ground Chicken Noodle Soup that I'm going to be sharing with you on Saturday, so make sure you stop back for that recipe. The following day this bread was wonderful toasted for breakfast.
Beetroot is very healthy and adds beautiful color! Love this amazing veggie packed bread! Thanks for baking with me!

ReplyDeleteYou didn't lose a bit of your gorgeous color in the baking! This bread looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteI was very pleased with how it turned out Karen. I think using raw beets was the answer.
DeleteI love beets, I am almost tempted at some point to try pickled beets in bread because they are a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteI don't see why that wouldn't work Kelly unless the acid from the pickling interferes somehow.
DeleteI never considered using raw beets! What a beautiful color they add to the dough along with those gorgeous little pops of color.
ReplyDeleteI know, right? It wasn't my idea but I'm sure glad that I found the recipe.
DeleteYou got good color for the beetroot bread. I made last week I didn't get. I need to try your recipe.
ReplyDeleteI think the raw beets are the secret Swathi.
