Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350F/180C. Grease and flour, spray or line with parchment paper an 8 inch (20 cm) loaf pan.
- Soak raisins in boiling water for approximately 15 minutes, drain and gently dry with a paper towel, set aside.
TOPPING
- In a small bowl mix together the cinnamon and brown sugar, set aside.
BREAD BATTER
- In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and raisins, set aside.
- In a mixing bowl on medium speed cream the butter for about 1-2 minutes , then add the sugar, ⅓ at a time, beating in between additions. Add slightly beaten egg and beat until light, approximately 5 minutes.
- With a wooden spoon or spatula alternately add the milk and the flour to the creamed butter mixture. Mix gently until combined, do not over mix.
- Spoon half the batter into pre-pared loaf pan, sprinkle with half the topping, spoon remaining batter on top, sprinkle the topping on top of the batter. Bake for approximately 30-40 minutes check for doneness with a toothpick. Eat warm or room temperature! Enjoy.
Notes
- Sometimes I will make this loaf with the raisins on top of the loaf rather then in the batter. I mix the drained raisins with the remaining topping then sprinkle on the batter.
- A few people have mentioned that the raisin can burn, so it might be a good idea for the last 10-15 minutes of baking to cover the bread with foil and continue baking. There is no need to cover the loaf with foil if placing the raisins in the batter.
- It best to store the cooled baked bread in an airtight bag, it will keep for up to 2-3 days at room temperature. Anything longer than this and it should be frozen. Freeze the cooled bread in a freezer safe bag or container. You can also freeze individual slices if you prefer. The bread will keep for up to 3 months.
