How to Make Southwest Surprise Bread
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve 2 ¼ teaspoons of active dry yeast in 1 cup of warm milk (105-115°F).
- Add 1 (15-ounce) can of fat-free refried beans, ¼ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 cups all-purpose flour.
- Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth.
- Gradually stir in enough remaining flour (about 2-3 cups) to form a firm, slightly sticky dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Knead for 6-8 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat the top.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Gently punch down the dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Divide the dough in half.
- Shape each half into a loaf.
- Place the loaves in two greased 9x5x3 inch loaf pans.
- Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30-45 minutes.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Remove from pans and let cool completely on wire racks.
