Instructions: Add ingredients for the dough in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Set machine on standard, 1.5-lb loaf, medium crust (about a 3 hr cycle).

Meanwhile, place fruit and nuts in a bowl. Dust with flour. Add the fruit, 1/3-cup at a time, starting at the beginning of the 2nd knead. (See tip.)

After bread is done and cooled, combine the ingredients for the icing and drizzle over the top crust of the bread.

TIPS: You could add the fruit near the end of the second knead, at the signal, but 1 cup of fruit needs more time to be incorporated.

TIPS: If the dough appears too dry near the end of the first knead, add water from a spray bottle.

OPTIONS: Omit icing. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or colored sugar crystals while the bread is warm (not hot).

VARIATION: Tested the recipe with 1 medium egg, 3/4 cup water, and enough prune puree to measure 1 cup liquid (total).

Yield: "1 loaf"
