Pitanga is a tropical fruit that is very popular in many parts of the world, especially in Brazil. In addition to being delicious, pitanga is rich in vitamin C and has antioxidant properties that help keep your health up to date. How about incorporating this wonderful fruit into a bread recipe? Yes, this is possible and the result is simply amazing. Here is a complete pitanga bread recipe that you can make at home.

Ingredients:

  • 500g wheat flour
  • 10g dry biological yeast
  • 10g of salt
  • 50g of sugar
  • 250ml of warm water
  • 100g of softened butter
  • 200g of pitanga puree (to make the puree, just puree the pitangas in a blender and strain to remove the seeds)

Preparation Method:

1. In a large bowl, mix the wheat flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the middle of these dry ingredients.

2. Pour the warm water and the pitanga puree into the hole you made. Start mixing the ingredients with your hands or a wooden spoon, gradually incorporating the flour until a dough forms.

3. Add the softened butter to the dough and continue mixing until the butter is fully incorporated.

4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If it's too dry, add a little more water.

5. Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.

6. After the dough has doubled in size, knead it again for a few minutes to remove the air. Form the dough into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf pan.

7. Let the dough rest again for about 30 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.

8. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Bake the bread for about 30 minutes, or until it is golden brown and makes a hollow sound when tapped on the bottom.

9. Let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Now you have delicious and unique pitanga bread to enjoy. This bread is perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack. It also makes a great gift for friends or family. Enjoy!

Note: This recipe can be adapted to use other fruits. Just replace the pitanga puree with the fruit puree of your choice. Experiment with different fruits to find your favorite combination.

I hope you enjoy this pitanga bread recipe. It's a delicious way to incorporate fruit into your diet and add a tropical touch to your homemade bread. Happy baking!
