I used to make this bread every year for Christmas presents. Until I got my bread machine. Now I am just lazy. This looks really pretty when sliced.

This was a lot easier to make than I thought it would be and it was delicious! Thanks for sharing, and for the nice comment about my salmon club sandwich recipe.


I just recently started making my own bread and LOVE it. I don't have a bread machine but I'm going to try to make this. I love cinnamon raisin bread! Thanks!


I have a bread machine but still love to make bread the old-fashioned way, 'With my hands' I use the machine maybe once a month, and I am making bread all the time. I just love the flavor and aroma of fresh homemade bread, which is better than store bought. Sweetie you have my 5. Have a good night.....Cheryl
