Cranberry-Pecan Extraordinaire - Mare749 - 03-14-2007

(makes 1 loaf)

1/2 cup (2 1/2 oz.) whole wheat flour
2 1/2 cups (13 oz.) all purpose or bread flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries
1/2 cup pecan pieces
1 1/2 cups purified water
1/4 cup sourdough starter or 1/4 tsp. instant yeast

Proceed as in recipe for 18 hr. no-knead bread.

I got this recipe from breadtopia.com and was only mildly excited to try it since nothing could beat the original recipe. But I have to say, this was definately worth making. Still moist the second day and very good toasted for breakfast. I used a blend of dried blueberries, cherries, and cranberries. Also, I cut the recipe in half and baked it in a 1 1/2 qt. corningware dish for 30 minutes. It made a nice small, round loaf with a chewy crust. I will be doing this again.

Boy that sounds good. All of my favorites, 18 hr bread, pecans, and dried fruit! I bet it's beautiful also.
