  • 3/4 cup raisins

  • Do not add the raisins yet

Notes

  • Bread machine times can vary depending on the model
  • Cooling before slicing helps the bread hold its shape better
  • If your machine doesn’t have a sweet bread setting or an add-in signal, let the dough mix and start kneading first, then sprinkle in the raisins during the last few minutes of the knead cycle. This helps the dough come together before adding them, so they stay evenly distributed without getting crushed or sinking.
