Ingredients

    6 oz fresh or frozen (thawed) black cherries
    1 cup nonfat, plain Greek style yogurt
    1 cup whole milk, warmed
    1/4 cup Demerara sugar
    2 egg yolks
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    1 tsp salt
    2 tsp instant yeast
    2 cups whole wheat bread flour
    1 1/2 cups rye flour
    1 tbsp finely ground coffee beans (not instant coffee)
    1 tbsp cocoa powder
    1/2 tsp ancho chile powder
    1/2 tsp cinnamon
    1/4 cup cacao nibs
    2 tbsp dark raisins, soaked in hot water and drained
    1 tbsp rolled oats, for topping

Directions

Preheat oven to 400F and grease a rimmed baking sheet.
Spread the cherries out in one layer.
Roast for 30 minutes, then chop roughly and scrape into a bowl. Cool completely.
In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, milk, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, whisk together the yeast, flours, coffee, cocoa, ancho chile powder and cinnamon.
Add the yogurt mixture and start the mixer. Mix/knead for 15 minutes on low speed. It will be very sticky.
Cover and allow to rest 40 minutes.
Deflate dough and with greased hands (or a bench scraper) knead in the cherries, cacao nibs and raisins. Re-cover and let rest 30 minutes.
Deflate dough and, with greased hands, shape into a round loaf and place on a large baking sheet covered with parchment paper or silicone.
Cover and let rise 40 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Bake 50 minutes, covering with foil after 20 minutes, until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
