Directions
Hawaiian Bubble Bread, This recipe came from Cooking Lights 20th Anniversary issue, and was voted by staff as the Best Yeast Bread in the magazine in its 20 year history This irresistible sweet yeast bread is a staff favorite Dough is shaped into balls bubbles and layered into a tube pan Because its a yeast bread this recipe takes a bit of time, but its well worth it! Prep time includes time allowed for dough rising , OMG!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I made this recipe in my early twenties, and I could never remember in which magazine it had been printed I have wanted to make it again over the years, and now I finally can 🙂 I now know what old magazines to look through for the original recipe as well (yes, I do hoard magazines *grins*), Warning, this bread is addictive! More than half the bubbles were eaten before I could drizzle it with the icing You expect good flavor in a bread that contains all those tropical flavors but the texture is really what makes this bread so darned good The heart of the bread is moist without being doughy It is surrounded by a slightly sweet crust that flakes in your mouth This is real comfort food I found I needed 6 cups of flour to get the dough to behave Once you have tried it, try adding the zest of one orange to the icing for a whole new taste
