BREAD MACHINE CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD (GOLDEN RAISINS)

Steps:

• Bread machine settings - 1.5 or 2 pound loaf, light color and "basic" bread setting.
• Unplug the bread machine and remove the bread pan from the bread machine. This prevents any ingredients added to the bread pan from accidently spilling into the bread machine.
• Pour the milk into the bread pan and then add the other ingredients (except the golden raisins). Place the bread machine yeast in last and the yeast should not touch the liquid or salt (until the bread machine is turned on and the ingredients start to be mixed together). FYI - Do not place the salt where you plan to add the yeast.
• Place the bread pan back into the bread machine and plug in the bread machine.
• Enter the correct settings into the bread machine (i.e. 1.5 or 2 pound, light color and basic) and press the start button.
• After the bread machine has finished its FIRST kneading cycle (and before it has started the second kneading cycle), add the golden raisins.
• When the bread machine has finished baking the bread, unplug the bread machine.
• Lift the bread pan out of the bread machine. Wear oven mitts as the bread pan will be very hot!
• Remove the bread from the bread pan and place the bread on a cooling rack. Wear oven mitts.
• After removing the bread, don't forget to remove the mixing paddle if it is stuck in the bread. Use oven mitts as the mixing paddle will be very hot coming out of the bread machine. Or wait until the bread is completely cooled and then remove the mixing paddle.
• Please read the tips section for extra information on how to make this recipe successfully and to avoid common bread machine problems.

CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD (BREAD MACHINE)

Steps:

• Place ingredients EXCEPT FOR THE CINNAMON, RAISINS AND WALNUTS in the bread machine in the order your ABM recommends (mine recommends adding them in the order I have the ingredients written with water on the bottom and the yeast on the top, however I have been told that other ABM's recommend the dry ingredients first followed by the wet).
• Close lid and turn bread machine on. . . use the "sweet bread" setting and the "light crust" setting.
• When the bread machine beeps, add the cinnamon, raisins and walnuts. Close lid and let the bread machine continue cooking the bread.

CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD FOR THE BREAD MACHINE

THE BEST RAISIN BREAD FOR BREAD MAKER / MACHINE

Steps:

• Firstly, mix the flour, milk powder, sugar, salt and cinnamon together thoroughly in a mixing bowl making sure there are no lumps.
• Now add the luke warm water and butter into the bread machine. (I divide the butter into four pieces and put one in each corner of the pan for easier mixing).
• Then add the dry mixed ingredients into the pan. Make a small well in the centre of the dry mixture and add the yeast.
• Set the Bread Maker / Machine to 'Sweet Bread' setting and wait for it to 'BEEP' (approx 15 minutes) before adding the raisins.
• Wait until cooked and enjoy fresh or toasted with butter -- YUM !
• ** If the mixture is too dry while mixing you can add a tablespoon of water. Alternatively if its too moist, a tablespoon of flour should sort it out nicely. **.

BREAD MACHINE CINNAMON BUNS WITH WALNUTS & RAISINS

Steps:

• Measure first 8 ingredients into bread machine (refer to your bread machine instructions for the proper order). Select the dough cycle.
• Meanwhile, prepare syrup: Boil together butter, water and brown sugar for 1 minute.
• Immediately, pour syrup into a 9 X 13 pan; tilt pan to cover bottom evenly.
• Arrange walnuts, flat side up on syrup; scatter raisins on top.
• When bread machine cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to a lightly floured surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle.
• Roll dough into a 12 X 18 inch rectangle. Brush with melted butter.
• Sprinkle evenly with the mixture of brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle chopped walnuts and golden raisins on top. Starting at large side, roll up jelly-roll fashion. Pinch edge to seal. Cut roll into 12 equal pieces. To avoid too much filling from escaping, I first cut the roll in half, then each half in half, and then each quarter in thirds. Place rolls flat over syrup.
• Cover and let rise 30 minutes or until double in volume.
• Remove cover and bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown.
• Loosen edges and carefully invert onto serving tray.
• To make icing: Mix icing sugar and cinnamon together; add maple syrup and 1 tbsp milk, mix. If needed, add more milk. Icing should be stiff - but not too stiff - and not too runny either. I like to leave the icing on the side to allow folks to decide to use it or not.
• Enjoy!

MOLASSES GOLDEN RAISIN BREAD

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients except the raisins to the breadmaker and run on the dough cycle, for my breadmaker this is the order given and the dough cycle lasts 90 minutes. Note: I like to mix the warm water, milk and molasses and "proof" the yeast in it for about 10 minutes before adding the remaining ingredients.

WORLD'S BEST CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD (NOT BREAD MACHINE)

Steps:

• Warm the milk in a small sauce pan on the stove until it just starts to bubble, stirring occasionally.
• Remove from heat.
• Let cool until lukewarm, about 120-125 degrees.
• Dissolve yeast in warm water and set aside until yeast is frothy, about 10 minutes or so (make sure your water is at the correct temperature or the yeast won't activate.) Then mix in eggs, sugar, butter salt and raisins (stir in the cooled milk slowly so you don't cook the eggs.) Add the flour gradually to make a stiff dough.
• Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for a few minutes until smooth.
• Place in a large, buttered, mixing bowl and turn to grease the surface of the dough.
• Cover with a warm, damp cloth and let rise (I like to let my bread rise in the oven with the light on. It has just the right amount of heat and keeps the bread out of drafts.) Allow to rise until doubled, usually about 1 1/2 hours.
• Roll out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle 1/2 inch thick.
• Moisten the dough with 2 tablespoons milk and rub all over the dough with your hands.
• Mix together 1 cup of sugar and 3 tablespoons cinnamon and sprinkle mixture evenly on top of the moistened dough.
• Roll up tightly (the long way).
• The roll should be about 3 inches in diameter.
• Cut into thirds, and tuck under ends and pinch bottom together.
• Place loaves into well greased (you can use Crisco or butter for this) 9 x 5 inch pans and lightly grease tops of loaves.
• Let rise in warm place, uncovered, again for about an hour.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until loaves are lightly browned and sound hollow when tapped.
• Remove from oven and let cool on rack.
• Take melted butter and spread over tops of loaves.
• After about 20 minutes, lay loaves on their sides and remove from pans.
• Allow to cool before slicing.
