Mexi Bread

Ingredients

3 cups bread flour
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package 30 percent less sodium taco seasoning mix
3 tablespoons salsa 
1 (4 ounce) can diced mild green chilies, undrained
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
3/4 cup shredded Cheddar Pepper Jack cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (1/4-ounce) package fast-rising yeast
3/4 cup water, room temperature (80°- 85°F)
1 egg white, beaten
2 tablespoons shredded Cheddar
Pepper Jack cheese, divided

Directions

1. Following bread machine manual, place ingredients except egg white and 2 tablespoons cheese in bread machine pan. Program on DOUGH cycle. Check dough after 5 minutes; if necessary add extra water or flour, one tablespoon at a time, to form a moist dough ball around kneading blade. 
2. Meanwhile, spray a 12 x 18 x 1-inch sheet pan with nonstick cooking spray.
3. When cycle is complete, remove dough from pan and gently deflate.
4. Divide dough into 4 equal portions and roll into 17-inch ropes. Twist 2 ropes together, pinch ends and turn under. Shape into a crescent shape and place on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining 2 ropes, leaving room between loaves.
5. Cover; let rise until double in size. Brush breads with beaten egg white and sprinkle 1 tablespoon cheese on top of each bread.
6. Bake in preheated 375°F oven 22 to 24 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool on rack.

Makes 2 loaves, 16 servings each.
