PB and AP Swirl Bread Roll

Are you guessing what's peeking out of this delicious swirly bread? It's....peanut butter! Yes, that's right, this is your favorite sandwich now in roll form! Yummy swirl of peanut butter and jelly. Sounds delicious, right?

And it looks pretty cool when you cut it too! I've always wanted to make a roll bread, but for some reason I never got around to it. Finally I did, and boy am I glad I did. It was amazing! I even had a layer of chopped pecans to give it an added crunch!
Have I ever showed you guys my bread machine? It's so wonderful and easy to use. Maybe that's why I don't make a lot of roll breads. All I have to do is throw all the ingredients into the machine and presto fresh bread every morning! The one I have is the Zojirushi 1lb bread machine.

Impressive, yea? I totally recommend buying one because it makes great fresh bread, and perfect dough for these rolls. The machine bakes it for you, but if you pull it out before the last rising, shape it the way you want to, let it rise a little more, and then bake it, it's a super easy way to make shaped bread without having to knead the bread and all that hard stuff.

  2. Mmmm....this looks so good! Especially in the first shot!

    Your bread machine is the same brand as my rice maker!! haha....I only recognise it because of the elephant =) I use a breadmaker to make bread- it's so much easier than kneading! I don't really like the way my bread maker bakes my bread though, although that might have something to do with the breadmaker itself. I bought mine a couple of years ago before I got into baking, so I chose the cheapest one there was......haha. I only use mine for kneading dough =)
