EASY CINNAMON APPLE RAISIN BREAD
This is an easy and delicious bread to prepare. Even better you only need one mixing bowl because you can throw all of the ingredients right in! Feel free to tweak the ingredients to your liking...add more cinnamon...add nuts, etc. I hope you enjoy it! Edited: I have also tried out the bread by using 1/2 whole wheat pastry flour and 1/2 regular flour, a tbl of wheat germ and less sugar to make it a tiny bit "healthier". It came out just as nice as the original.

APPLE CINNAMON RAISIN PITAS (BREAD MACHINE)
I used to buy these breakfast "pitas" from the grocery store, but figured out how to make them at home - for a heck of alot less. They're more like small, flatbreads, and I slice them in half, toast them, and spread them with peanut butter, honey, or jam. Yum! They're not very sweet, as there isn't much sugar in them.

Steps:
- 1. Place ingredients except apples and raisins in bread machine in order that your machine specifies.
- 2. Set to "dough" setting and allow to complete cycle, adding the apples and raisins when your machine alerts you to add nuts/fruit. I actually have found that kneading these in by hand is actually easier, as they're a bit finicky to get worked through the dough.
- 3. Separate into 10 balls. Press each ball into a 4" round with your hands - you'll likely need to stuff some raisins and apples back in - it's worth it. Place on nonstick cookie sheets and allow to rise for 30 minutes.
- 4. Preheat oven to 500. Flip rounds, then place in oven for 5 minutes, flip again; turn oven down to 350 and bake for 15-20 minutes longer, until cooked through.
- 5. Remove from pan onto clean towel and cover while cooling.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better your bread will be. Look for fresh apples, plump raisins, and ground cinnamon.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the bread rise in a warm place: This will help the yeast to grow and produce carbon dioxide, which will give the bread its light and airy texture.
- Bake the bread until it is golden brown: Insert a toothpick into the center of the bread. If it comes out clean, the bread is done.
