Baked at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Put a loose tent of aluminum foil over the loaves for the last 10 minutes of baking. Absolutely perfect.

I want to start by saying I'm not a baker. This is the first thing I've ever made successfully from scratch. I have 4 children and 3 of them absolutely love raisin bread. I thought it would be a good idea, and cheaper, to make it instead of $3 per loaf from the store. I settled on this recipe and I love it, they love it! It's moist, delicious, came out a beautiful golden brown and made the whole house smell wonderful. Thank you for posting it.

I loved this recipe for raisin bread. I never think there are enough raisins when I buy the bread at the store, so this was my chance to add more! I added about a quarter cup more than the recipe calls for and it wasn't too overwhelming at all. I can't wait to heat up a slice and it it for breakfast! This recipe did make three loaves, so I had some extras to give away!

Delicious! I used apples instead of raisins because my husband doesn't like them. I halved the recipe and had two large loaves. They definitely only needed to bake around 30 minutes.

Fabulous!!! This bread is delicious. I made the dough machine and didn't add the raisins until I was sprikling on the cinnamon and sugar. Oh - and I added a bit of brown sugar. Came out great and freezes well too!

oh boy. i am in heaven. as i sit here devouring my second slice of this bread, i feel that i must encourage everyone to try this recipe. I give the actual recipe like a 4 1/2, but the end result, after some changes, a 5. The changes i made were mostly due to my preferences. I used half whole wheat bread flour because i wanted a wheat bread, I omitted raisens because i can't stand them, and I added a couple tsp of cinnamon to the dough. My bread only needed to be baked for 30 minutes. I also only have 8 in and 7 in loaf pans so I made two bigger loafs and two smaller ones. Don't skip the buttering step at the very end. I think it made a world of difference in my crust. I also changed how i rolled out the doughs. Instead of one big one, I divided the doughs and rolled each one up alone, because i wanted a really thin layer and did not have room to roll the whole thing out in one fell swoop. also, a stick of margarine works great in this recipe so don't think you should have to sub in real butter. Although i do not think i used enough cinnamon sugar on top of the milk, it still tastes amazing. I did not measure how much, but just sprinkled it on the dough. I also wanted different fillings so i wanted to roll them invidually. I did craisens in one loaf. The only thing i would change next time is to chop them up a little. The bread still looks and tastes great but I think it would be better if they were more evenly distributed in smaller pieces. I will be gifting this bread to ma

I liked it, but since I don't do a lot of baking I want a real wow when I do. The swirl needed something more, and I think the bread was a little bland.

Okay at best, glad I read lots of reviews cause it only needed to cook for about 25 minutes for me, and there was not very much cinnamon taste next time I will use a different recipe.

Faye, thank you for this recipe! It is a family favorite! I have been making this in my Bosch for years, with a few minor modifications. *First, rather than scalding the milk, I use very warm water and powdered milk for this step. *Second, I use only 1/4 c, butter in the dough. *Third, I brush the dough with butter rather than milk before sprinkling on the cinnamon/sugar mixture.--I like the flavor the butter adds. Lastly, I roll the dough into one long roll like a cinnamon roll and cut it into thirds and seal the edges before placing in my bread pans. These steps have helped stream-line this recipe while maintaining the integrity of the original. * Finally, this dough makes EXCELLENT cinnamon rolls! Just slice into 1 1/2' slices instead of three segments for the bread. Frost with cream cheese frosting and you are good to go. HTH!

I loved this bread! It turned out very pretty, not to mention tasty. The only reason I gave the recipe 4 stars instead of 5 is that it was so large! I actually made only 1/3 of the recipe. I was very pleased with the results.

If you follow this recipe exactly (note: the loaves probably only need 30 minutes to bake) you should end up with a perfectly fine batch of cinnamon raisin bread; a plain raisin bread with a light, sweet swirl cinnamon swirl running through, perfect for toast. I prefer my bread to be a bit sweeter and much more moist, though, so I use the following modifications; add 1/2 c sugar and omit 1 c flour to the main dough; leave out the raisins for the filling. This will make your dough sweeter and super sticky, so it may be more difficult to work with, but the loaves turn out so much more moist. The stickier the dough, the more moist the bread will be. Then I double the sugar in the cinnamon swirl filling and sometimes substitute brown sugar for half of the white sugar. I sprinkle raisins liberally on top of this. If you want to make cinnamon rolls, just cut your rolled loaf into 1" slices (or however thick you want) before the second rise. Before baking, you can pour a mixture of sugar, cinnamon and melted butter over top which will give them a nice sugary glaze, or you can use one of the many icing recipes on this site.
