Waste not, want not - Coffee Bread


You'll hear me gush about my bread maker, but I love it! It's one of my favorite appliances, even though I could probably replace it by using the dough hook on my Kitchenaid. But I just love the "fix it and forget it" convenience of the bread maker. Here's a favorite recipe for using up leftover coffee:

Coffee Spice Bread

1 cup strong brewed coffee
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg, room temperature
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp sugar
3 cups bread flour
2 tsp yeast

Put all ingredients in machine in order listed and set on regular cycle.

(This is from one of the Bread Machine Cookbook series from Nitty Gritty Cookbooks. Highly recommended.)
