Rich Raisin and Cranberry Loaf (bread machine) image

This is an all-time favorite bread recipe and I cannot (darn it!) take credit for it. It comes straight from my bread machine recipe book and is just too special not to share. The only change I made was to replace half of the raisins w/ dried cranberries (LOVE the balance between sweet and tart) and add cinnamon . As the title...

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2/3 c milk, room temperature
1/2 c unsalted butter, room temperature and cut into 1 inch pieces
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 tsp salt
1/4 c granulated sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon ( i use vietnamese)
3 & 3/4 c bread flour
2 tsp active dry yeast, instant, or bead machine yeast
1/2 c dried cranberries
1/2 c dark raisins

Steps:

  • 1. OPTIONAL: I like to soak raisins/cranberries in hot water until soft. This will make them plumper and softer and keep fruit on outside of loaf from burning. If you prefer not to do this, mix dried fruit w/ pinch of flour and toss. This will keep fruit from sticking together.
  • 2. Place ingredients, in order listed, in bread pan. Select loaf size (2 LB) and crust preference. I use a light setting for a tender loaf. Choose sweet bread program and start bread maker.
  • 3. Add fruit when mix-in tone sounds or when appropriate for your maker. When cycle is complete, remove bread from pan to wire rack to cool completely prior to slicing. Take a whiff of that heavenly yeasty cinnamon fragrance and ENJOY!

This loaf is a delightful symphony of flavors and textures. The raisins and cranberries add a burst of sweetness, while the walnuts provide a satisfying crunch. The bread itself is moist and fluffy, with a tender crumb that melts in your mouth.
