How to Make Easter Bread In The Bread Machine
- Combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 2 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon sugar in your bread machine pan. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1 teaspoon anise seeds, and 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour to the bread machine pan.
- Select the 'Sweet Bread' setting and the 'Dark Crust' option on your bread machine. Start the machine.
- Once the first kneading cycle is complete (check your machine's manual for timing), carefully add the anise seeds through the bread machine's opening.
- During the kneading cycle, if the dough is too sticky, add 1-2 tablespoons of flour, one tablespoon at a time. If the dough is too dry, add a teaspoon of milk at a time until a soft, smooth dough forms.
- Once the baking cycle is complete, remove the bread from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
