When The Rosemary Blooms
When the Rosemary blooms I love to make Rosemary-Lemon Bread. This is Beth Hensperger recipe in her bread machine cookbook. I have made a few changes by adding some whole wheat flour and left out the hazelnuts and gluten. I use my garden lemons and rosemary. I hand mix and let the bread rise slowly in a cool room. I also baked this one in my bell la cloche at 475 for 35 min. uncovered and baked 10min. more at 450. The bread was sliced a little warm...my husband wanted a sandwich and it was getting late! Hope you enjoy the photo of the Geese..they came and turned away into the sunset when I ran in to get the camera!
A Lemon for the bread!
There is Lemon zest, Rosemary and Golden Raisins!
A Rosemary Flower/Lemon Fondant up close is so pretty and dainty! They are very nice on cakes, breads, ect!
There's a hint of the rosemary and lemon zest with the sweetness of the golden raisins and honey. The egg, butter and milk give the crumb a nice moistness and add to the lovely flavors! All in all a nice bread for the coming of Springtime!
The end of a lovely day!
