Cinnamon Raisin Bread
This recipe for homemade Cinnamon Raisin Bread is no knead, meaning you stir the flour, cinnamon, yeast, brown sugar, raisins, and water together in a bowl and let it rise. No need to knead - I love that. Once it's risen to double the size, you turn it out onto a floured surface and form a ball, let it rest while the oven heats up and bake. Super simple and it turns out just like a bakery loaf of bread - every time.

Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups warm water warm
- 1 tsp active dry yeast
- 3 cups bread flour plus more
- ¾ cup golden raisins
- 4 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp Kosher salt
Instructions
- Add the yeast to the warm water and allow to sit for 10 minutes to bloom the yeast. It should be foamy.
- In a large bowl, add the remaining dry ingredients and stir to combine, making sure to break up the raisins and coating them well with the flour mixture.
- Add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients and stir well with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together.
- Cover with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and allow to rise until double in size, about 2-3 hours.
- Preheat oven to 450ºF with the dutch oven inside.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and form a smooth ball by gently folding the dough into itself a few times. Place on a piece of parchment paper and place the bowl over the top and allow to rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove the dutch oven from the oven and place the bread and parchment in the hot dutch oven. Slash the top with a sharp knife or bread lame tool, place the lid back on, and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and bake an additional 20 minutes.
- Lift the bread out of the dutch oven and allow to cool on a wire rack before slicing.
