Cinnamon Raisin Bread

This is my youngest daughters new favorite bread.

We go back and forth on foods constantly, and now we are back-on to raisins!  

It's so exciting when she accepts a food (again) and we can try and work it into as many recipes as possible.  Autism can be very narrow minded, so it's the little things that excite us as parents and caregivers.  

This is a really delicious bread and stands on it's own, but is even more yummy when used as a sandwich bread, french toast or grilled on the stove top with some butter. Yum! 

Don't be weary of the yeast in this recipe.  It is probably the simplest yeast bread recipe you'll ever bake.  The key to it turning out right is making sure your warmed liquid is at the 120 degree mark and you don't rise it to much.  I have made the mistake many times letting my bread rise a bit to high and then once in the oven, it "pours" over the pan as it bakes and makes such a lovely mess! (not!)  

 I hope you enjoy this recipe and it brings a bit of change to your everyday bread.........
