Enriched Breads

In addition to simple yeast breads, there are a range of bread recipes that contain other ingredients to enhance the flavour, colour or texture of the loaf. These ingredients can include items such as sugar, honey, herbs, spices, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds and even meats and cheeses to add colour and flavour. The richness of the flavour and the colour and texture of the crumb and crust can all be improved by the addition of eggs, butter, oil or milk.

In this section, we take a look at some of these rich and filling breads from England, Wales, France and Italy.
