Bleu Cheese and Port Bread

BLEU CHEESE AND PORT BREAD

"This moderately textured loaf makes great croutons and wonderful toast points for parties - delicious served warm with your favorite steak. As with all cheese recipes, loaf appearance may vary but the flavor is worth it."

1 cup water
3 cups white bread flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup port red wine*
1/3 cup blue cheese*
1/3 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon fast rising yeast (OR 2 tsp. active regular yeast)

Place all ingredients in bread machine pan, in order given Can be made with the regular and rapid bake cycles.

*No need to use an expensive port here, just one with good flavor.

**The sharper the blue cheese, the stronger the flavor in the bread. We like the Danish blue best.
