Vegetable Bread Using a Bread Machine

Since I have owned a bread machine, most of my breads have been created by using this wonderful machine. The bread dough comes out perfectly every time. For this recipe, I use the sweet dough or the potato bread dough recipe. The filling for this recipe is just about the vegetables that are a combination of carrots, mushrooms, zucchini, yellow squash, and onions. I use whatever vegetables that are available to me. Squeeze out the excess water after blending the vegetables in a blender to prevent the dough from becoming soggy. The type of cheese used is also your choice to suite your family’s tastes. So, here is the simple vegetable bread for breakfast or for snacks.

Ingredients:
Bread machine ingredients:
1 cup warm water
1 egg
2 tbs sugar
1 tsp salt
2 tbs butter or coconut oil
3 cups bread flour
2 tsp active dry yeast

Directions:
Place all the ingredients listed above into the bread machine pan and press start.
When the doors finished and has risen enough, the machine will make a beeping sound.
Remove dough and place onto a floured countertop. Gently roll dough with a rolling pin into 12” x 12” rectangle.

The filling ingredients:
1 carrot
1 mushroom
1/3 zucchini
1/3 yellow squash
1/4 cup red onion
1 garlic clove

Other ingredients:
2 tbs green onion and 2 cups cheese
Egg wash:
1 beaten egg

Directions:
Place all the filling ingredients in a blender and pulse a few times to chop the vegetables into fine pieces. Squeeze out the excess water until the remaining solids equal approximately 1 cup.
Spread the chopped vegetables onto the prepared dough above. Top with about 2 cups of cheese and green onion.
Starting at one edge, roll up dough and pinch seam to seal. With seam side down, with a knife lightly score the dough into 1 inch sections. Cut dough into 12 pieces.
