Recipe: Hawaiian Sweet Bread - Loaf or Big Hamburger Bun (bread machine)

HAWAIIAN SWEET BREAD

Kathy, IN: "Here's a Hawaiian Sweet Bread Recipe my family loves. I make it in a casserole dish, then slice it horizontally like a hamburger bun. Then I make a big mushroom and Swiss cheese burger with golden mushroom soup and mushrooms and Swiss cheese on top of a big burger." (See baking variation below.)

3/4 cup pineapple juice
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
4 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. vanilla (or coconut extract)
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup potato flakes
3 cups bread flour
1 tbsp. vital gluten (optional)
1 1/2 tsp. bread machine yeast

Place ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturer's directions. Use sweet, or white light setting.

BAKING VARIATION:
To bake in a casserole dish, use bread machine dough cycle. Remove dough from machine and shape into a round. Place in a greased 2 1/2 quart casserole dish. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake in preheated 350 degree F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until brown.
