I love this recipe. I think I will do as I did with the no knead recipe. Mix it all together, except for the fruit, let it rise in the bedroom where it is the warmest overnight. Then punch it down, knead in the fruit and let it rise again for 1 to 2 hours or as long as it takes, no rush. I could not believe how good my no knead bread came out. This makes it so easy. My yeast in the small packets was a powerhouse and I was supposed to use 1/4 tsp. but I think I used at least a half a teaspoon and no baking powder or soda. It came out awesome. To me this is a no fail method and the bread comes out tender and delicious. It is a little like sourdough as I let it rise about 12 hours and it does have a lovely tartness. This may work well for this bread. I will try it. I love King Arthur Flour. I will use glace fruits and golden raisins as well. Thanks so much for this recipe.
