Fruity Bread by Breadmaker

I never wanted to buy a breadmaker as I am I am a strong believer of making bread manually as in  kneading the dough by hand. And the bread will turn out to be more fluffier and softer. But I was wrong and had to eat back my words after using the breadmaker to make bread during the lockdown due to Covid-19 pandemic. Hubby ordered a breadmaker just to prove that Breadmaker will save time and energy and that the bread will turn out beautifully soft too . And seriously it is a great buy. It saves a lot of time and energy. Just need to weigh out the ingredients and adding them into the breadmaker according to the instructions. It takes 3 hrs only and from the adding of ingredients to baking. So happy to own one . It has made life easier. I normally set the Breadmaker to work as soon as I wake up, that is about 5.30am in the morning so that it will be in time for breakfast. 
I like to make fruity bread using the breadmaker as the texture is soft and firm. When toasted it is even more fragrant with the dried fruits in it. Cranberries, raisins and black current and dried peaches. Can eat them with homemade sausages and sunny side up for a western breakfast.
Soft and firm texture, how hubby likes it

Or eat with handcrafted tomato basil butter
