This recipe came from the internet, and it is our favorite raisin bread. We especially love it as raisin toast for breakfast. Ingredients:
2/3 cup raisins, soaked in |
3 tablespoons vanilla, for at least one hour (or microwaved - see below) |
1 1/4 cups buttermilk (or plain milk soured with a tsp of white vinegar) |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine |
2 tablespoons sugar |
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour or 3 1/2 cups bread flour |
1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional) |
1 1/2 teaspoons yeast |
Directions:
1. Select basic or SWEET setting.
2. Special Notes: The recipe calls for 2 tsp of yeast, but I find this way too much yeast- blows the top off the machine!
3. This makes a 1 1/2 lb loaf which basically fills my 2 lb machine.
4. DO use pure vanilla extract for best results.
5. If you don't have the time to soak the raisins ahead of time (I never do) just microwave the raisins and vanilla for 1 minute on high or med-high in a micro-safe bowl.
