This bread is made entirely in the Thermomix as it is steam baked in the Varoma. It is meant for toasting.
The recipe comes from ClubCocinaFacil - the recipe below has one more rising than the original. You can also see a video on their website. It is in Spanish but you will get the general idea.
See Variations below for how to convert this recipe for steaming conventionally.

Chef's notes
This bread will seem to be uncooked, but that is how it is. It is very good toasted and will last for days.
I steamed mine in an enamel pudding basin, which is fine, but the top of the dough does touch the Varoma lid towards the end of the steaming time,
