I love raisin bread, and I couldn't resist having a recipe that turns out great in the bread maker, because it makes breakfasts or mid-morning/afternoon snacks so easy. I wanted a well-stuffed-with-raisins bread, with a crispy crust, the kind that crackles when you press it (yes, even though it's made in a bread maker) and dense, and this recipe meets all those requirements.
Like so many other bread maker recipes, it's extremely easy to make: put all the ingredients in the pan and start the machine, with only one exception: the raisins should be added 20 minutes after the bread maker is turned on.
That easy, yes. If you're looking for a different, slightly sweet bread without fuss, or something to solve a breakfast or snack, this is your bread.
Moulinex bread maker with large capacity and baguette accessory
Ingredients
- 265 ml of water
- 1/2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp salt
- 200 g bread flour
- 80 g buckwheat flour (if unavailable, use rye flour or substitute with bread flour)
- 75 gr wheat flour (standard)
- 1 packet (5.5 g) dry baker's yeast
- 75 gr raisins
Preparation
- Put the water, sugar, salt and all the flours into the bread pan in that order. Sprinkle the dry yeast on top.
- Place the pan in the Moulinex bread maker and program:
- Program 4 (basic bread)
- 750 g loaf weight
- Crust setting: light crust (the resulting loaf is a little under 750 g, and despite programming "light crust" it bakes to a medium crust level).
Notes
- Raisin bread is delicious on its own, or to enjoy with contrasts: I love it spread well with tomato, drizzled with good olive oil and sprinkled with flaky salt, then accompanied by serrano ham or cheese.
- Remember that grapes are great companions to cheese, so this bread sliced and toasted will be fabulous on the table next to a good cheese board.
- It's a bread I love toasted; I think it adds even more.
- When I want it sweet, I love it toasted, with oil and salt and served with dark chocolate - you have a delicious breakfast or snack solved!
I hope you like this bread, and that you enjoy it as much as I do.
