Bread Machine Fruit Loaf

---

This came from my bread machine recipe book. I have made it a number of times and it comes out lovely. Fantastic as a breakfast toasted and buttered! Yum! i have altered the recipe slightly so that it is compatible with all of you. An australian tablespoon = 4 tsp (20ml), so i have converted all measurements to teaspoons to avoid confusion. If you have a sweet bread cycle i'd recommend using that, but otherwise i'm pretty sure ordinary would work fine. I have frozen slices in plastic bags, so i always have some on hand if i get a craving. Nutella makes a good spread for this.

If using the glaze , combine glaze ingredients in a small saucepan over a heat until the sugar and gelatine has dissolved.

Use the pause function if you have one , at fifteen minutes into the baking cycle , brush glaze over loaf.
