~ Cherry-almond muffin bread Recipe ~

1 T. corn syrup (works without this but the crust is different)
     2 t. almond flavoring
     warm water to make 1 1/4 cups liquid
     3 c. bread flour
     3 T. non-fat dry milk
     1 t. salt
     1/4 t. baking soda
     2 t. sugar
     2 t. yeast
 In a glass measuring cup mix the first three ingredients.  Pour into
 bread machine mixing pan and add remaining ingredients.
 
 Set bread machine for sweet bread, light crust.  When raisin/nut beep 
 sounds, add 1/2 c. dried red cherries.  (May also add 1/3 c. chopped 
 almonds, but this adds fat, and the bread is good without it).
 
 [Give this a chance to cool before tasting.  The flavor is better].
