Goji Cranberry Bread Recipe for Bread Machine

Tired of eating supermarket bread and aiming to eat heathier food, I finally decided to buy a bread machine. The one I got is: Panasonic SD-YD250 Automatic Bread Maker (By the way, Amazon is selling it for $99.99, which is $20 off what I paid one month ago). It is very easy to use and comes with a handy little brochure for simple recipes and troubleshooting tips. After 3 trials, I was already making perfect bread: soft & spongy and in picture perfect shape!

As usual, I love to try out all different material in my bread. I add all different kinds of things, as my mood changes: from soy milk, green tea powder, barley powder, craisin, goji, 36 grains mix, green milk tea, oolong tea etc etc. All the goodies that we offered in the store could end up in my bread :).

Here is my today’s recipe for Goji bread. It is very simple. 5 minute preparation, 4 hour machine time. Result? Excellent soft & spongy. A kids’ favorite too.
