Festive Chilli & Feta Centrepiece Beer Bread Wreath

Festive Chilli & Feta Centrepiece Beer Bread Wreath

Perfect for entertaining this Christmas


This striking Christmas Chilli & Feta Wreath combines the warming flavours of Barrett's Ridge Chilli & Garlic Beer Bread Flour Mix with the sweet heat of True Origin Foods Mango Chilli Jam and creamy feta cheese.


The fruity mango balances the gentle chilli kick, creating a delicious sweet and savoury flavour combination.

Twisted into a beautiful wreath shape, it's a rustic homemade centrepiece that's perfect for festive grazing tables.




Ingredients:

1 bag Barrett's Ridge Chilli & Garlic Beer Bread Flour Mix
2 cups thick plain yoghurt
30g cold butter, cubed
5 tbsp Mango & Chilli Jam
2 tbsp feta cheese
2 tbsp melted butter


Method:

Preheat oven to 190°C.

Empty the Chilli & Garlic Beer Bread mix into a bowl and rub in the butter using your fingertips. Once the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, gradually add the yoghurt, mixing with a butter knife until a dough starts to come together.

Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead until smooth. Roll the dough out into a 40 x 60cm rectangle and spread the True Origin Foods Mango Chilli Jam evenly over the surface before sprinkling with the crumbled feta. 

Starting with a long side, roll up the dough into a tight sausage and, using a sharp knife, cut the sausage of dough in half lengthways, leaving a small section (approximately 14cm long) intact at one end.

Turn the halves carefully so the filling is exposed, then cross the dough halves over each other until you have a long twisted piece of dough. Cross one end of the twist over the other and tuck the ends under to form a wreath-shaped knot.

Transfer to your prepared baking sheet, brush the dough with melted butter and bake for 35–45 minutes until golden brown and baked throughout. 

Tent with foil during the last 10 minutes if necessary. Decorate with a ribbon and fresh sage leaves to serve.

 

 

Any flavour of beer bread will work, so have fun trying different flavours to create your own twist on the recipe.
