Yeast Activation
- Warm 1 ¾ cups of water to 105-115°F. Stir in 2 teaspoons of sugar, sprinkle in 1 packet of active dry yeast, and let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
Dough Preparation
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of bread flour, 2 cups of all-purpose flour, and 2 teaspoons of salt. Gradually add yeast mixture while mixing on low speed with a dough hook until sticky dough forms.
First Rise
- Lightly coat a large bowl with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Place the dough inside, turning to coat. Cover with a damp towel and let rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.
Second Rise
- Punch down the dough. Transfer into a greased 9x13-inch baking pan, folding to coat with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Cover and let rise for another hour.
Prepare for Baking
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Create dimples in the dough and generously spread raspberry jam over the surface, ensuring it seeps into the dimples.
Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes until golden brown. Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen.
Add Jam Filling
- Cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Poke holes in the top and drizzle more raspberry jam into the holes.
Prepare Icing
- Mix 2 cups of powdered sugar with 2-4 tablespoons of milk until you reach your desired glaze consistency.
Serve
- Glaze the bottom first, then frost the top with icing. Cut into squares and serve warm with coffee or tea.
