MAPLE MILK BREAD

Steps:

• Make the tangzhong: In a medium pot, whisk together the bread flour and milk until relatively smooth. Set over medium-low heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens into a texture not unlike mashed potatoes or grits, 2 to 3 minutes. You may see lumps at first, but as you continue to whisk and the flour cooks, your mixture will smooth out.
• Make the bread: Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the cream until smooth, which will cool down the mixture and add some necessary fat. To the creamy mixture, add 4 cups/576 grams bread flour, the maple syrup, egg, salt and yeast, and stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until you can no longer see any streaks of egg or flour. Cover the pot with a lid and let sit in a warm place to proof and hydrate until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
• To knead by hand, keep ½ cup/72 grams bread flour next to you. Dust a clean work surface with some of the flour and turn the dough out onto the surface. Dust some more flour on top of the dough and on your hands, and knead the dough into a ball using both hands. As you start to feel the dough get sticky, add more of the flour. The goal here is to not use more than that ½ cup of flour to knead the dough and, at the same time, to develop enough gluten in it so that it's no longer sticky, 5 to 7 minutes. Alternatively, knead with a stand mixer: Transfer the dough from the pot to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. Knead on medium-low speed for 15 minutes; it will become pretty sticky and cling to the bowl. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Dust some more flour on top of the dough and on your hands, and form the dough into a ball using both hands, adding more flour as needed.
• Grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Cut the dough in half with a knife, then flatten each piece using your hands, pulling the corners of each piece up and over the center, all around, so that you're creating two tight balls. Twist the pulled-up edges to seal and turn the balls over so their smooth sides are facing up. Nestle the two balls side by side in the pan and let sit, covered with a clean kitchen towel, in a warm place in your kitchen until the dough balls have risen an inch above the rim of the pan, 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, heat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake the bread until the crust is dark brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center reads 185 to 190 degrees, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before taking out the bread and slicing into it. (Technically it should cool completely, but come on: There's nothing like the glorious experience of tearing into a fresh, warm loaf of sweet milk bread.) The bread will keep for up to 3 to 4 days in a closed container at room temperature.

MAPLE APPLE SWIRL BREAD

Steps:

• Combine 2 cups flour and yeast in a large mixing bowl.
• Combine milk, maple syrup, butter, and salt in a saucepan. Heat until mixture reaches 120 to 130 degrees F (48 to 54 degrees C) and butter almost melts.
• Pour milk mixture over flour mixture. Add shredded apple, eggs, and maple flavoring. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-low speed for 30 seconds, scraping the sides of the bowl constantly. Increase speed to high and beat for 3 minutes. Stir in as much of the remaining flour with a wooden spoon as you can.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes. Shape into a ball.
• Place dough in a lightly greased bowl. Turn once to grease the surface. Cover; let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
• Turn dough out on a lightly floured surface. Divide in half; cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine chopped apple, walnuts, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the filling.
• Lightly grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans. Roll 1 dough half into a 9x14-inch rectangle. Spread 1/2 of the softened butter on top; sprinkle with 1/2 of the filling. Roll each short end up towards the center. Place loaf, rolled side-up in 1 loaf pan. Repeat with remaining dough, butter, and filling.
• Cover loaves and let rise until almost doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and bottoms sound hollow when tapped, about 30 minutes. Cover loaves loosely with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning, if necessary. Remove from the pans and cool on wire racks.
• Combine powdered sugar, maple syrup, milk, and maple flavoring to make glaze. Drizzle over cooled loaves.
