Directions
-
Warm the water to about 110ðF (43ðC) and sprinkle the yeast over it in a large bowl. Let stand for 5âÂÂ10 minutes until foamy.
-
Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla extract, vegetable oil, and beaten eggs until well combined.
-
Add half of the bread flour and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
-
Stir in the cooled cooked quinoa, followed by the remaining flour. Mix until the dough is just combined and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5âÂÂ7 minutes until smooth and slightly elastic.
-
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
-
Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it into a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.
-
Cover and let rise again for 30âÂÂ45 minutes, until the dough crests above the rim of the pan.
-
Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Bake the loaf for 30âÂÂ35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 190ðF (88ðC).
-
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
