Mandelbrot - (Almond Bread)
3 eggs
1-1/4 cups bread flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 taaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/3 cup blanched almonds, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Beat the eggs and sugar together until thick. Add the oil and vanilla and mix well. Stir in the flour, baking powder and almonds. Pour the batter into a lightly-oiled and floured 9x5x3-inch loaf pan just to cover the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle on the cinnamon.
Add another layer of batter and cinnamon. Continue until all the batter and cinnamon are used.
Bake in a 350F oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Bread will be dense.
Remove from the pan and cool on a wire rack. Cut into 1/2-inch slices when ready to serve. Place each slice on a lightly oiled baking sheet and toast in a 400F oven for 5 to 6 minutes.
Note: The Mandelbrot has about three-quarters teaspoon of sugar per serving.
