List of Ingredients

For a 1 ½ pound loaf:

¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
2 tablespoons butter
3 cups bread flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
1 ½ teaspoons anise seeds, crushed
1/3 cup raisins
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup candied orange peel




Recipe

Add ingredients to the bread machine in the order listed, or
otherwise as directed in manufacturer's instructions. Add the
raisins, pecans, and orange peel at the tone for adding fruits and
nuts. I use the sweet bread cycle, but a normal cycle would likely
work fine.

Glaze (optional):

Combine ½ cup sifted powdered sugar, ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract, and
enough milk (2 to 3 teaspoons) to make a glaze of drizzling
consistency.
