CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD

Yield: 4 loaves, about 1-1/2 pounds each

Preparation: 15 minutes; 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 hours to rise and bake

2teaspoons instant yeast

3tablespoons honey

1/3 cup warm (105-115°F) water

7cups unbleached all-purpose flour or bread flour

2cups whole wheat flour

1cup uncooked oatmeal

1stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature, cut in 8 pieces

1tablespoon salt

3cups cool water

6tablespoons brown sugar

2teaspoons ground cinnamon

2cups raisins (may also use dried cranberries, cherries, or blueberries)

3tablespoons unsalted butter Milk for brushing the tops of the loaves

Dissolve the yeast and honey in a 4-cup measure; let stand for 2-10 minutes to proof (if it does not bubble or foam, the yeast is not active; discard and begin again with fresh yeast). Insert the dough blade and process the white and wheat flours with the butter and salt for 20 seconds.

Add the cool water to the proofed yeast mixture; stir to combine. With the machine running, pour the liquid through the feed tube in a steady stream as fast as the flour absorbs it (it should take 35 – 40 seconds). Continue processing until the dough starts to clean the inside of the work bowl and forms a ball. Let the machine run for 80 seconds to knead the dough.

With lightly floured hands, carefully remove the dough from the work bowl and shape into a smooth ball. Place in a lightly floured jumbo resealable bag. Squeeze the air out and seal the bag. Let rise in a warm (80°F), draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1-11⁄2hours. Coat 4 loaf pans (6 cup: 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2 inch) with cooking spray.

Punch the dough down, divide into 4 equal parts (use a Cuisinart® scale for best measurements), cover loosely and let rest for 10 minutes. Melt the butter. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon.

Working with one piece of dough at a time, roll each into a rectangle about 9 x 15 inches. Leaving a 1 inch edge all around, brush the interior with one quarter of the melted butter, then sprinkle evenly with one quarter of the brown sugar and cinnamon. Distribute one half cup of the raisins over the brown sugar. Starting at a short end, roll tightly to form a loaf. Pinch the seam, then pinch and fold the ends under towards the seam. Place in a prepared pan and repeat with the remaining dough. Cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray, and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until the center of the loaf is slightly higher than the pan, about 1-11⁄2hours. Fifteen minutes before baking, arrange the rack in the center of the oven, and preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly brush the loaves with milk.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. Bread will be golden and sound hollow when tapped. Remove from the pans and allow to cool completely before cutting.
