A delightful almond and anise bread made effortlessly with a bread machine.
Add the warm water, eggs, butter, sugar, salt, bread flour, anise seed, and yeast to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Ensure the water is warm but not hot to activate the yeast properly.
Select the basic bread setting on your bread machine. Choose the light crust color and appropriate loaf size.
Refer to your bread machine manual for specific settings.
Start the bread machine and let it mix the ingredients. Check the dough after 5 minutes of mixing and add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed to achieve the right consistency.
The dough should form a smooth, elastic ball.
When the machine signals the final kneading phase, add the sliced almonds to the dough.
Adding the almonds at this stage ensures they are evenly distributed without being crushed.
Allow the bread machine to complete the baking process. Once done, remove the loaf from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack.
Letting the bread cool completely prevents it from becoming soggy when sliced.
Slice the cooled bread and serve as desired. Enjoy your homemade Almond Anise Bread!
This bread pairs wonderfully with butter or a light spread.
