Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup Raisins
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/4 cup Light Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon Cinnamon
2 cups All-Purpose Flour (regular or gluten-free measure-for-measure flour blend) (see Notes below on measuring the flour)
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 cup Unsalted Butter (Softened)
1 cup Granulated Sugar
1 Egg
1/2 cup Milk
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2-4 tbsp. heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9x5 loaf pan with a non-stick baking spray. PRO TIP: Line the bottom with parchment paper and spray the paper for easier removal.
  • Add the raisins and vanilla extract to a small bowl. Fill with boiling water with 1/2 inch of water over the top of the raisins. Soak the raisins for 15 minutes, then drain them and set them on a towel to dry.
  • In another small bowl, mix together the light brown sugar and cinnamon. Take a spoonful of the brown sugar mixture and stir it together with the raisins. Set aside. The rest of the sugar mixture will be used in the bread.
  • In a medium sized bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl (or bowl of a standing mixer), beat together the sugar and butter until it's light and fluffy.
  • Add in the egg and mix again, just until combined.
  • Slowly add in the flour mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix just until everything is combined, do not over mix.
  • Fold in the raisins.
  • Spread half of the batter along the bottom of the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture on top of the batter.
  • Spoon the remaining batter on top and spread to the edge. Sprinkle the remaining brown sugar mixture all over the top.
  • Bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool for 10 minutes before moving the bread to a cooling rack. Cool for about an hour before icing and cutting.

RAISIN NUT BREAD



Raisin Nut Bread image

I always bought this bread to use with Turkey Tea Sandwiches #110177 but when I moved and could no longer find it, I combined different things from 3 recipes to come up with this one. I only use it for the turkey tea sandwiches. The combination of raisins, nuts and cream cheese with basil go so well together!!

CARROT RAISIN QUICK BREAD



Carrot Raisin Quick Bread image

Another gem I found through Cooking Light magazine. This gives a very moist and packed with flavor quick bread that is lower in calories than a cake. I like to add chopped walnuts or pecans to the bread but the original recipe does not call for them so I left it as written. It is also fun to add about a 1/2 cup of shredded unsweetened coconut for a fun twist.

RAISIN-CURRANT BREAD



Raisin-Currant Bread image

Provided by Suzanne M. Charle

Categories     dessert, side dish

Time 1h15m

Yield Two 12-inch loaves

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups graulated sugar
3/4 cup golden raisins, lightly chopped
3/4 cup currants
2 eggs, at room temperature
3 cups milk, at room temperature
6 tablespoons finely grated orange zest
1/2 cup melted butter, cooled to tepid

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly grease 2 loaf pans, line with parchment and regrease.
  • Sift the first 6 ingredients into a large bowl and set aside. Place raisins and currants into a bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon of the sifted mixture. In another bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients.
  • Make a well in the center of the sifted ingredients and pour in the egg-milk mixture. Sprinkle with the raisins and currants. Mix with a wooden spoon until just blended. Pour the batter into the pans and bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool the bread in the pans for 5 minutes, then invert onto a rack and cool to room temperature.

Tips:

  • For a sweeter bread, use golden raisins instead of regular raisins.
  • Add a 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for extra flavor.
  • Top the batter with a streusel topping before baking for a crunchy crust.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to grease and flour your loaf pan before adding the batter.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
