i really enjoyed the ease of this recipe, and the fact that it had no added sugar. i added about a third of a cup of honey to it, mixed it in the bread machine and then baked it in the oven because it's always so much better that way. (350 for 25-30 minutes)

Great recipe! I doubled the raisins like previous reviews suggested, and also added 3 teaspoons of brown sugar since I like a sweeter bread. Perfect!

This recipe was very easy and turned out the best of any bread machine recipe I have tried. I used 1 1/2 c bread flour and 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour. I used butter instead of lard. I also added 1 t. fructose, because I was worried that the yeast wouldn't work properly without sugar. The loaf came out light and airy. I love this recipe for a hearty, healthy and tasty bread.

Was Ok. Needed to be a tiny bit sweeter. May add more cinnamon next time.

I did not care for this recipe, and I even added sugar! I dont know if I did it wrong, but its the worst raisin bread Ive ever tried. I dont mean to be rude, but this really was terrible. Sorry!

Great bread. I substituted some of the flour with whole wheat flour and it tasted great. If you like the raisins whole, add them in after the first kneading.

This bread was definitely too dry. More water should be added.

This bread turned out so good! It's not too sweet, but is sweet enough with the raisins. I almost ate the entire loaf by myself. I gave the recipe to my mom, I guess my sibling demolished two loaves in a day! Awesome recipe. Will keep making it. :)

Something is definitely missing from this recipe. It did not rise or bake correctly. A yucky mess. I will not waste ingredients trying this again.

I did not like this bread at all. I like big plump rasins in my raisin bread, and because this recipe said to just add them in the beginning and not at the "add ingredients" single, they were all chopped up. When done you can't even tell it has raisins in it, and you can barely taste them. It also needed more cinnamon, a bit of sugar, and less yeast--it tasted too yeasty and not like the typical raisin bread I'm used to. I will not be making this one again.

Really a nice raisin bread! I use half raisins, half mixed peel because I like the flavour it adds, plus I add a bit of extra fruit! Turns out perfect every time.

This was unusual in that there is no sugar! The raisins provide the sweetener and this is a very good bread.

I can't even give this recipe a star. There has to be something missing from the recipe. I've made it twice thinking the first time that my yeast was bad. I bought new yeast. It doesn't rise and is yucky when it is baked. Sorry, but I won't waste my ingredients on it again until someone tells me what is missing.

My husband, who can be picky,loved it! ~ I had to add more yeast for my bread machine. What I liked best...low sugar, low fat, and still tastes terrific!
