This is my new standard raisin bread recipe!! It rose nicely, and the taste & texture were wonderful! I added a teaspoon of cinnamon, and used quick oats. I added the oats in step 1 instead of adding them later with the raisins. I set the bread machine for the 'Dough' cycle, then kneaded the dough and placed it in a greased loaf pan to rise. (By the way, it was easy to handle, and I didn't even bother flouring the counter!) After it was risen, I baked it in a 385 F oven for about 24 minutes. When cooled, I cut into slices. It was easy to slice without 'caving in'. The bread was soft and moist, with a crisp crust. Delicious! This would also make an awesome regular white loaf without the addition of raisins! Thanks for posting this recipe, Capncrunch!

This is a delightful bread! The raisins and honey add just the right amount of sweetness to this loaf. I used Quaker Quick-1 Minute Oats, as this is all I had on hand, which gave this bread a denser, chewy texture. Very, very nice! I will enjoy this as toast with cinnamon and sugar in the morning! Thank you so much, Capncrunch!

We just finished sampling this bread and both of us give it 10 stars! I soaked the raisins in a bit of brandy and added 1 tsp. of cinnamon. I had to add a bit more flour but fingure that was because the raisins hadn't totally drained. I used the ABM on dough cycle and then split the dough into two loaf pans. Baked the loaves at 350 for 35 minutes. My kitchen still smells like heaven! Thanks.

Our whole family loves this bread. I add the oatmeal with the liquids because we it less crunchy. Also add 1 tsp cinnamon. Smells like cinnamon rolls when it is baking!

I used Demerara sugar in place of the honey, 50% whole wheat flour and 1 tsp. of cinnamon and it came out great. I did have to add 2 Tbsp. of water when I added the raisins and oatmeal to help blend into the dough. Used sweet bread setting and medium crust.

this is a great recipe i tried it out in my bread machine i got this chistmas and i loved the bread but i need to add more honey to taste kinda sweet and add more flavor so the bread tasted like a reg bread off the shelf without the extra honey and i also added pecans it was a great addition

We loved this! I used quick cook oats and added pecans, cinnamon and nutmeg and a tiny bit of brown sugar. My husband doesn't even like oatmeal but he has LOVED this. Eat it with a little butter on it warmed up. YUM!! Thank you for posting this! It's a keeper.

This bread was perfect. I added a handful of walnuts and 2 tsp. of cinnamon. I will be using this tomorrow to make french toast for a special brunch for my 'PEST' friend Leslie on her graduation morning. The house smelled heavenly as this was baking. I did take it out of the breadmaker and put it in a regular loaf pan to rise and bake.

I'm not rating this because although the flavor was good, something went wrong. Actually, a couple of things went wrong. I added the oats and raisins as directed in the recipe, but they never got mixed in well with the dough. I had pockets of dry oats in the finished loaf. Next time, I will add the oats with the flour. The other thing was that mine did not rise much at all. I know my yeast was good, so I wonder if that was related to the oats not mixing in--maybe the dough was too sticky to rise well? I don't know. In spite of all that, the flavor really was good, and I'll definitely try this again and see if I can make it work next time.

Excellent bread that rose just short of the lid of the breadmaker! Great consistency and texture.

I was expecting a sweeter bread. I used it for toast and it tasted good like that. I don't think I liked it enough to make it again.

mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmm good. This was a great recipe for the bread machine. I converted it to a 2 lb. loaf. I followed the recipe exactly as converted. It was perfect. Made a very large 2 lb. loaf. I'm not big on raisins either, may try to make without them next time as hubby doesn't like them at all. Thanks for sharing!!
