The inspiration for this recipe for breadfruit bread came from a random stranger on a chance encounter while hiking. Unfortunately I did not get his name so I cannot credit him by name. But by chance he ever reads this post, just know that I am eternally grateful for the conversation and the inspiration to try this recipe. I tested this recipe four times before arriving at this final version that produces excellent results.
Breaking down the flesh of the breadfruit in a food processor, then combining it with the Ibis Bakers Flour, which has 12 grams of protein, really is a key step to developing the perfect dough.
This is an amazing way to utilize overripe breadfruit so I really hope that you do try making this bread!
