Cinnamon Raisin Bread

I know there are a billion bread recipes out there, and most of them are probably delicious. I guess I love this recipe so much, because my mom made this bread when I was a kid.


Cinnamon Raisin Bread
from Deanne Jefferies

2 1/2 cups hot water
1/4 cup honey
4 Tbs oil
1 Tbs salt
2/3 cup powdered milk
2 Tbs yeast
2 1/2 cups Hard Red wheat flour
Mix all of the above together in order. Knead for several minutes. Then add:
2 cups Hard White wheat flour
1 cup bread flour
Don't mix the additional 3 cups of flour in, just let them sit on top of the dough mixture. Let sit for 45 minutes. By then, bubbles should dhow through the flour. Knead for 10 minutes, adding flour as needed. Dough should be slightly sticky. Cover bowl with dam cloth and raise in warm over until double in size. Then pull out dough and divide into two balls. Roll out each ball into a large rectangle and sprinkle on raisins, cinnamon, and sugar. Roll up and put in greased bread pan. Raise again in warm over with a towel over the dough. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
