CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD WITH MAPLE GLAZE
From The Vista Verde Ranch, Steamboat Springs, CO Courtesy of The Great Ranch Cookbook, by Gwen Ashley Walters I make this bread last night (1/13/03). It is great! My husband bought this cookbook for me on our honeymoon at Elk Mountain Ranch (also featured in the book) & this is one of the first recipes I have tried. I only have a couple of thoughts to add. One, just so that no one else makes the same mistake I did. You need to make the oatmeal per the directions on the package & add the butter to that & add it to the yeast hot. I for whatever reason thought they meant just the rolled oats. So I heated the oats & the butter in the micro & dumped it in & ended up with a really dry lump after only adding the first 3 cups of flour. So I realized my mistake & started over. The second thought is you don't have to add the glaze. I didn't & it turned out wonderful. I hope you enjoy!

[email protected]I love this recipe! The bread is so soft and fluffy, and the glaze is the perfect amount of sweetness. I've also tried adding different spices to the bread, like nutmeg and allspice, and it always turns out great.
