Method
Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast together.
- In another bowl, combine the warm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Stir until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Rising
- Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- After the first rise, punch down the dough gently, roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.
Assembling the Loaf
- Spread the raspberry jam evenly over the rolled-out dough.
- Starting on one long side, roll the dough tightly into a log.
- Twist the log gently to create swirls and place it in a greased loaf pan.
- Cover the loaf pan with a towel and let it rise again for about 30 minutes.
Baking
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the loaf for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
